In SLASH'EM, the mall is located between levels 5 and 6 of the Dungeons of Doom, and contains many shops, much like Minetown. It has a 75% chance of being generated. On entering the level, you will get the message "You hear the sounds of civilization.", and see the down staircase in the same room as you entered. It is part of a normal room-and-corridor level, with four normal rooms, and a large shopping-area room. The main shopping area is populated by four watchmen, three watch captains, four muggers, two sewer rats; All random monsters when the level is generated are muggers or rats. There are two variants [1][2] with a different layout for the main room, however both have the same chance of each type of shop:

  1. 100% chance of a general store
  2. 20% chance of a tool shop
  3. 40% chance of a food shop
  4. 20% chance of a scroll shop
  5. 30% chance of a potion shop
  6. 12% chance of a ring shop
  7. 33% chance of a lighting shop
  8. 12% chance of a book shop
  9. 17% chance of a wand shop
  10. 20% chance of a weapon shop
  11. 22% chance of an armor shop
