There are two ways to play: via `WebTiles` for simple +2d graphics and via `ssh` for a more traditional ascii interface. + +* CTVO: [https://crawl.tildeverse.org](https://crawl.tildeverse.org) + +If you already have an account on tilde.institute, you can play via the +ascii interface by issuing the command `dcss`. This will automatically +connect to the server and present the login/registration menu. + +Some users prefer graphics. For `WebTiles`, it will be necessary to go to +[https://crawl.tildeverse.org](https://crawl.tildeverse.org). Click `PLAY` +to open the `WebTiles` interface. + +## Recorded Games + +All games on CTVO (the tildeverse crawl server) are recorded for later +playback. In order to review a previously recorded game, navigate to [the +ttyrec directory](https://crawl.tildeverse.org/ttyrec), select a username, +and download the `ttyrec` file. You'll need to have the `ttyrec` package +installed in order to review them. Issue: `ttyplay file.ttyrec` and watch +as your terminal automagically transforms into a recorded DCSS game. + +`ttyplay` is installed on tilde.institute, so feel free to download a +game to your home directory and watch it from there. + +## Morgue Files + +Want to see the run-down of a game? Check out the `morgue` +file for it. They're sorted into username directories at: +[https://crawl.tildeverse.org/morgue](https://crawl.tildeverse.org/morgue). +Each `morgue` file contains information such as how you died, your stats, +an account of monsters vanquished, among other stuff. + +[back](/) |
