File:Dos hack bad scores.png

Summary
This screenshot shows the results of Kernigh playing Hack 1.21 (a port of Jay Fenlason's Hack) for DOS. In eight games from 16 to 22 July 2006, all eight characters died or quit on level 1.

DOS Hack 1.21 is unique in that characters much purchase their initial inventory at a shop before entering the dungeon. Further, this inventory must include a light source, because in DOS Hack a player without light in a corridor or dark room is effectively blind.
