What a lovely way for a game to end:

zunger-Arc-Hum-Mal-Neu died in The Dungeons of Doom on level 5. Killed by a little dog, while helpless.

I think it’s a sign that the game is trying to not just kill, but humiliate.

    You want me to genocide little dogs?! I just can’t imagine that turning out well, especially if one has one as a pet…

    Yeah, you’d take a point or two of evil if you did so. But only if it’s your pet… Much worse for you to *eat* your little dog.
