Beware the {{kbd|y}} key! Not only does it move northwest, it also answers "yes" to questions like "Eat the [[cockatrice]] corpse?"

Strategy

Beware the y key! Not only does it move northwest, it also answers "yes" to questions like "Eat the cockatrice corpse?"

Some game binaries are compiled with paranoid_hit, an option which requires you to type "yes" to answer such questions in the affirmative.
