[[NLarn]] is a rewrite of the classic Roguelike [[Larn]] from scratch. NLarn tries to maintain the atmosphere and story of the last version of Larn (12.3) while improving game-play and the user experience. Only a few of the additions of [[Ularn]] have been included.  
[[Ascii Sector]] is a space trading and combat game with a few RPG elements. Combat in space is realtime, while character combat on the ground or on board a spaceship is turn based. Players can earn credits to upgrade their ship, either by trading goods, taking on missions or pirating.
 
 
Very noticeable differences to Larn so far include:
* colour and effects
* a real town
* improved and simplified user interface
* extremely different item handling


The game currently has no plot, but players can create their own quests to share with other players using a relatively simple script syntax and the built-in quest compiler. There are plans to add an overarching plot and endgame, which will see the player getting involved in shady business and finally building up his own fleet to take over the entire game universe.

The game currently has no plot, but players can create their own quests to share with other players using a relatively simple script syntax and the built-in quest compiler. There are plans to add an overarching plot and endgame, which will see the player getting involved in shady business and finally building up his own fleet to take over the entire game universe.
