dNethack in Junethack

Xlog Trophies

OneKey.png That was the easy one: Obtained at least one alignment key.

ThreeKey.png Through the gates of Gehennom: Obtained at least three alignment keys (the number needed to complete the game).

NineKey.png Those were for replay value...: Obtained all nine alignment keys.

Games Played Trophies

DN King.png King of dNethack: Ascend a game with all the new races/roles in dNethack.

DN Prince.png Prince of dNethack: Ascend a game with half the new races/roles in dNethack.

DN Tour.png dNethack Tour: Played a game (at least 1000 turns) with all the shiny new races/roles in dNethack.

The new races in dNethack are incantifier, clockwork automaton, half-dragon, and drow. The new roles are Noble, Pirate, and Binder. Convict and Vampire are also implemented, but are insufficiently distinct from their incarnations in other variants to count. Note that you can play an incantifier Noble, an incantifier or drow pirate, and a Binder of any race.
