SLASH'EM (Super Lotsa Added Stuff Hack - Extended Magic) is a variant of NetHack based on version 3.4.3. The object of the game is the same: to fetch the Amulet of Yendor from the bottom of the Gehennom and offer it to your god.
Compared to vanilla NetHack, SLASH'EM contains five new roles and five new races for the player to choose from, several new special levels, several new monsters, new items and new artifacts, and other changes. The main dungeon is longer in SLASH'EM than in NetHack, but Gehennom is shorter.
Most people regard SLASH'EM as much more difficult than vanilla NetHack; while it contains significantly more content, it is widely considered to be less balanced.
Many of the more popular additions to SLASH'EM, such as the Vampire starting race and the Black Market level, have been incorporated into actively developed variants such as UnNetHack. There is also a successor named Slash'EM Extended, which also has a variant named SlashTHEM.
