Line 90:
** Nethack has an explicit [[Shout-Out]]; a character playing a wizard (or elf or valkyrie) receives the Gauntlet message when in need of food.
** Food is a similar resource in [[Alpha Man]], though it's a little more simplified.
** This is a key part of most [[RoguelikesRoguelike]]s. If it isn't food, then it's [[Dark Cloud|water,]] or even something more exotic like fuel.
** ''[[Angband]]'' players must eat, though the mechanics are simpler than in ''Nethack'', especially with Satisfy Hunger scrolls or spells. It is possible, though unlikely, for the message warning about hunger to appear ''after'' "You die."
** ''[[Nethack]]'' lets the player #pray for food when fainting from hunger. It might work, if the player's god isn't angry with him, and the player hasn't prayed recently.
