Brings what grabs you about Desktop Dungeons: Rewind: runs that differ every time, turn-based combat and tactical depth.

A compact puzzle-roguelike where each short run on a tiny grid becomes a tight optimization problem of spells, gods and careful tile reveals. Quick sessions, deep tactics and dry humor define it.

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.

Peglin

Runs that play out differently every time

A roguelike where you play a little goblin launching orbs through a pachinko-style board of pegs to damage enemies. Randomized relics and orb combinations make every run different and reward smart aiming.

Rack and Slay

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based roguelike where you play as a billiard ball, knocking monster balls into holes and traps. Stackable items let you craft powerful synergies across runs.

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.

Backpack Hero

Runs that play out differently every time

A roguelike where packing your backpack is the puzzle: item placement, adjacency and synergies determine your offense and defense in turn-based fights. Each run brings new builds and routing decisions across the map.

Dungeons of Dredmor

Runs that play out differently every time

A humorous turn-based roguelike with randomly generated dungeons, where you mix skills from a huge skill tree to craft your own builds. Quirky monsters, items and references keep it funny, while hunger, traps and permadeath keep it challenging.

WazHack

Runs that play out differently every time

A classic turn-based roguelike where time only advances when you act. With over 300 items and 150 monsters, it rewards creative problem-solving in tight spots across procedurally generated dungeons.

Sproggiwood

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based roguelike set in a humorous world inspired by Finnish mythology. You play short, tactical dungeon runs, taming monsters and developing your hero with classes and skills.
