No, but I did escape once with a fake amulet of yendor. I think that&#x27;s when I lost my spirit for returning.<p>One of my favorite things to do was enter a shop and then throw things out the door of the shop so the shopkeepr didn&#x27;t think I was stealing. Also, can&#x27;t remember how, but I used to be able to get my pet to steal things from the shop.<p>Oh, and if you could pick up the corpse of a cockatrice then anything you attacked and hit with it turned to stone.  Nice. Maybe you needed to be wearing gloves to do that.  Can&#x27;t remember it was a long time ago.<p>I did also get addicted to another text based game called &quot;Empire&quot; for a while.  I&#x27;m not sure if it still exists.<p>I think I played it on a Compaq 286.<p>Oh no... I can feel that long faded addiction tugging me back to the console......I&#x27;d better call my sponsor.
