Freedink

FreeDink is a portable and enhanced version of the Dink Smallwood game engine,
an adventure/role-playing game similar to Zelda (2D top view), made by RTsoft.
The AmigaOS4 port is done by Hugues Nouvel (HunoPPC).

The game features the twisted adventure of young Dink Smallwood, a pig farmer
who leaves his town and goes on a quest to save the world. Besides twisted
humour, it includes the actual game editor, allowing players to create hundreds
of new adventures called Dink Modules or D-Mods for short. The Dink Network
hosts a copy of almost all of them.
