I like the idea of Classic/Enhanced modes (aka Rogue vs Rogue-like), and/or a difficulty setting. I bought RogueTouch partly because it is a close descendent of the original Rogue and not some random derivative.

To stretch out what food you do find, note that according to the description of the original Rogue game wearing a ring uses more food.
