Brings what grabs you about Claustrophobia: The Downward Struggle: runs that differ every time, turn-based combat and deep character progression.

A pixel-art turn-based roguelike where you stack classes, skills and powerful items into wildly strong hero builds. You fight through the grim lands of Achra toward the mysterious Obelisk.

Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup

Runs that play out differently every time

A classic roguelike where you build a hero from many species and classes and fight turn by turn through deadly dungeons to fetch the Orb of Zot. Deep mechanics, gods, spells and unforgiving permadeath make every run feel distinct and replayable.

Runestone Keeper

Strong character progression

A turn-based roguelike dungeon crawler where you fight monsters on a grid, collect gear, and make smart use of runes, shrines and traps. Runs are random and punishing, so careful planning matters.

Rogue Fable III

Runs that play out differently every time

A traditional turn-based fantasy roguelike with deep tactical decisions and high difficulty. Runs are shorter and more focused than in the genre's classics, with plenty of class and skill choices.

Rogue

Challenging difficulty

The original roguelike: you fight turn by turn through randomly generated dungeons drawn in ASCII characters, where death is permanent and every run plays out differently.

Iratus: Lord of the Dead

Runs that play out differently every time

You play an evil necromancer breaking out of his dungeon prison, commanding a horde of undead in tough turn-based battles. It mixes roguelike runs with a grim comic-style look and plenty of tactical positioning and resource planning.

Rift Wizard

Runs that play out differently every time

In Rift Wizard you assemble your own spellbook from more than a hundred spells and fight through procedurally generated turn-based challenges. Every death sends you back to the start, so each run becomes a fresh tactical puzzle.

Deified

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based tactical roguelite where you build your strategy around powerful relics, balance slot constraints, and take on formidable bosses.

Crown Trick

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based roguelike where enemies only act when you move, turning every step into a tactical puzzle through procedurally generated dungeons. It has a hand-drawn look and plenty of spell and crown build combinations.

Netherguild

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based tactical roguelite where you lead expeditions underground to find a cure for a strange plague. You balance exploring, camping and fighting against knowing when to retreat and resupply.
