I've played around with the unregistered version of Newthack. It's not
bad, but rather simple compared to the awesome original NetHack, unless
there are some hidden surprises in the registered version.

No magic scrolls, no potions with weird effects, no teleports... Basically
it's a top-down version of Doom rather than the Newton version of NetHack.

I'm not saying it's no good, just that the name might give the wrong
expectations.
