LINUXGAMES

Previously a shareware game, Helherron, has been updated to version 2.04. This game is similar in lines to the older Ultimas and Nahlakh games. Changes in this release include:

• Linux version for i386 processors is also available now
• Helherron should now work quite a lot faster on slower machines (<500 MHz)
• Fixed a million bugs, improved stability…
• A new character class: Shaman. They’re able to cast both Magic and Prayer spells and they’re very good at casting summoning spells.
• A new skill debuts: Backstabbing.
• Added some new *great* looking player character images (thanks to Tony Castleberry)
• Now you can change the image of your player characters (Ctrl+I).
• Detect skill now detects secret doors (but don’t trust this too much. You are still going to miss most of the secret doors unless you search for them manually).
• Firing a crossbow no longer requires 8 movement points. 6 is enough.
• A new quest along with 4 new levels of dungeons.
