[Hack] The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Dungeon (NES)

The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Dungeon es un hack de The Legend of Zelda (1986) para NES creado por arnpoly que modifica el juego de Nintendo para convertirlo en un roguelike, ofreciendo una nueva experiencia al estar centrado en la exploración de una mazmorra generada de manera aleatoria, cambiando su estructura, enemigos y objetos cada vez que se entra por una puerta.

• Roguelike Gameplay: Every playthrough is different and it is all included directly in the ROM file. No external randomization programs needed, just load and play!
• Dynamic Enemy Loading: Normally the overworld and each dungeon has a specific set of enemies available. In Ancient Dungeon, new enemies are loaded dynamically during every room transition. This means there are no restrictions in the combinations of enemies you may encounter in the dungeon.
• Room Generation: New to version 3.0, the dungeon room layouts themselves are randomized. Rooms can be made up of pieces of existing room designs and/or randomized blocks.
• Additional Item Abilities: Some items have new functionality specific to Ancient Dungeon. One such example is the Recorder, which now both defeats Pols Voice and forces Peahats to land.
• In-game Timer: A built-in timer keeps track of your runtime and is shown at the end of every run, win or lose. Best completion times are also saved when playing in random mode.
• Seeds: You can choose a custom seed value and play the game in seeded mode, which gives you the same randomized layout every time. This is perfect for setting up races!
• Custom Palettes: New palettes have been added that change periodically through the dungeon, providing a touch of variety.

El parche para poder jugar The Legend of Zelda: Ancient Dungeon se puede descargar desde ROMhacking.net o desde RomHack Plaza y tiene que ser aplicado a la ROM “Legend of Zelda, The (USA) (Rev 1)” con cualquier programa compatible con archivos en formato .IPS, como Lunar IPS o Floating IPS.
