Brings what grabs you about Dungeons of Aether: runs that differ every time, turn-based combat and a demanding 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.

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

Runs that play out differently every time

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.

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.

WazHack

Tactical depth

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.

MidBoss

Runs that play out differently every time

You defeat enemies, possess their bodies and take over their abilities in a turn-based, procedurally generated labyrinth where every run offers new options. Swapping into and combining borrowed abilities is what makes it stand out.
