Love this game, but I'm having an issue past level 25.  Games save OK and reload immediately, but if I shut down and restart the game I go back to level 25.  Using a Pi1541 drive emulator on an original shortboard 64.

Also, I started getting "BRK" cards in a red stop sign shape which prevent a full hand from being dealt.  I can clear them with a trash can, but they seem like a bug not a feature?

Some enemies like the acid blob, virus or robot may add curse cards to your deck after a successful near attack.  You may want to avoid close combat here - or have a trashcan ready.  Other enemies like the skull may steal a card, or the zombie even destroy a slot.

If you have problems with a save file, you should check if it is actually changed when entering a new level - otherwise there might be some write protect issue.  You can find me on the Everything C64 discord if you want to share the roguebotsave file with me for inspection.

Thanks for the detailed reply!  As I mentioned, it only started after level 25 and nothing has changed about my drive setup.  I'll try again and if I still have issues I'll get you the file.

As every good rogue-like, it is hard... And you never know when you'll finish your game...
