Concerning the house rules, I've complete it (mixing existing stuff with something mine) but I think I need a little more beta testing yet, I named it HACK!, the recursive acronym of "Hack And Crawl Knack!" ( by the way, does it have sense in english?);

Sounds good, HACK is a great name for it
the acronym doesn't quite work in modern English though ... I assume your using 'knack' in the Old English way to mean break/damage/hit something. But that meaning is rarely used today apart from in the form 'Knackered' usually used to mean exhausted as in:
"I've walked all the way across town with the shopping and now I'm knackered, I need to sit down"
or to mean broken as in:
"You tried to fix the computer by hitting it with a hammer? ... well that's knackered it!"
More often these days 'knack' on it own is used in a different way to mean a trick, talent or skill as in:
"I tried learning to ice skate but I haven't got the knack of balancing yet"
also the 'And' is in an odd place for an English sentence

I'd suggest making the acronym something like: "Hit, Attack, Crawl, Kill!" or "Healer, Archer, Caster, Knight"

Anyway I look forward to reading your stuff when it's ready
