        !            23:
        !            24:        <p align="justify"><u>Rogue</u> is a computer fantasy game with a new twist.
        !            25:        It is crt oriented and the object of the game is to survive the attacks of various
        !            26:        monsters and get a lot of gold, rather than the puzzle solving orientation
        !            27:        of most computer fantasy games.</p>
        !            28:
        !            29:        <p align="justify">To get started you really only need to know two commands.
        !            30:        The command ? will give you a list of the available commands and the command /
        !            31:        will identify the things you see on the screen.</p>
        !            32:
        !            33:        <p align="justify">To win the game (as opposed to merely playing to beat
        !            34:        other people's high scores) you must locate the Amulet of Yendor which is
        !            35:        somewhere below the 20th level of the dungeon and get it out. Nobody has
        !            36:        achieved this yet and if somebody does, they will probably go down in history
        !            37:        as a hero among heros.</p>
        !            38:
        !            39:        <p align="justify">When the game ends, either by your death, when you quit,
        !            40:        or if you (by some miracle) manage to win, <u>rogue</u> will give you a list of the
        !            41:        top-ten scorers. The scoring is based entirely upon how much gold you get.
        !            42:        There is a 10% penalty for getting yourself killed.</p>
