Something is wrong with your indentation, as there are nbsp inserted
throughout your patch.
I couldn't also apply your patch cleanly. Did you try using git
format-patch?

Version should be "1.5.3", the "v" is prepended in the commit.

I don't think this is sufficient, MAngband also looks for sdl2-image and
sdl2-ttf.

automake and autoconf belong to native-inputs, not inputs. Also, inputs
ought to be sorted alphabetically (nitpick).

The home page is https://www.mangband.org

Synopsis must not start with an article, and "free" should be removed as
everything in Guix is free. There is no final full stop either in
a synopsis.
You may want to run guix lint mangband to catch some common errors.
> + (license license:expat)))
I think this is more complex than that. Looking at the COPYING file,
there's also, at least, public-domain and bsd-2 involved.
But, more importantly, I couldn't make this game work. Running
mangclient fails with a segmentation error, while running mangband fails
with the following fatal error: "Cannot create the
'/gnu/store/…-mangband-1.5.3/var/mangband/data/scores.raw' file!"
Could you look into it. I paste here my "improved" version of the
package definition, if that helps.

(description
"MAngband is a free online multiplayer real-time roguelike game, derived
from the single player game Angband.
To win the game you must build up a character, selected from any one of 10
races and 6 classes, to be powerful enough to defeat Morgoth, Lord of
Darkness, who lives in the dungeon 5000 feet below the surface of the town.
As you work towards this near-impossible goal, you will chart unexplored
dungeon passageways, do battle with legendary creatures, and find lost
artifacts. And of course throughout your journeys you will encounter many
other adventurers -- whether they be friend or foe is up to you to decide!")
