     NAME
          scoundrel - rogue-like dungeon crawler card game.

     SYNOPSIS
          scoundrel

     DESCRIPTION
          Scoundrel is a rogue-like dungeon crawler card game where
          different cards are assigned values for monsters, weapons
          and potions.

          The card colors:

          Spades and Clubs
               These are monsters. They deal damage according to their
               card value.  Face cards (J, Q, K, A) are equivalent to
               11, 12, 13, 14.

          Hearts
               These are health potions that heal the HP of the player
               according to their card value. You can only take one
               potion per room, and heal to a max HP value of 20.

          Diamonds
               These are weapons that are equipped when clicked. When
               attacking monsters with a weapon, the damage is reduced
               by the value of the weapon card. The player can only
               attack monsters with the same weapon if the damage of
               the attacked monster is smaller than the value of the
               last attacked monster.

          After starting the game with the s key, the player is enter-
          ing several rooms of the dungeon sequentially. Each room is
          presented as four random cards.  The player can choose to
          skip a room by pressing the n key, however the player can
          only skip one room in a row.

          When the room is not skipped, the player has to clear the
          room by handling three of the four cards. The last card will
          be brought into the next room.

          The cards of a skipped room are placed at the end of the
          deck; the player will face them later.

          If there are not enough cards left to fill a room, the game
          ends.

          If the player's HP reach 0, the game ends.

          Additional commands:

          s    Start the game.

          r    Reset and start a new game.

          n    Try to skip this room.

          w    Decide to use the weapon, if equipped. A red bar indi-
               cates that this weapon will be used, if legal.
