Special room (SLASH'EM)

For special rooms in vanilla NetHack, see special room.

SLASH'EM contains several new special rooms not included in vanilla NetHack. In addition, there may now be more than one special room on each level, with up to one each from each of the following categories:

• Throne rooms (throne room, leprechaun hall, giant court, barracks)
• Hives (beehive, anthole)
• Zoos (treasure zoo, fungus farm, real zoo)
• "Neat" rooms (temple, morgue, bad food shop, swamp)
• Dangerous rooms (cockatrice nest, dragon lair, migohive, lemure pit)

New shops

SLASH'EM features two new shop types- pet shops and frozen food shops. Pet shops sell figurines, leashes, tripe rations, and saddles, and frozen food shops sell ice boxes (which contain corpses) and tins.
