Death In Egoboo

Death in Egoboo usually isn't permanent, but it's not a good thing either. Your character will drop both in-hand items, all of his or her keys, and all the Zorkmids he or she is carrying. If you press the Spacebar to respawn, your character loses a portion of his or her experience and is returned to the start of the module. In multiplayer games, carry Scrolls of Rebirth to avoid these bad effects. In single player games, carry more Life Potions... If you find Egoboo very easy to play, then try not dying once!

There is also talk of incorporating a 'hardcore' setting into Egoboo, which will make death permanent. From personal experience, much of the fun of the RogueLike genre was derived from knowing that if you died, that was the end. It gave you more of a personal attachment to your character. I think this would translate well to Egoboo.
