Games like Hoplite

2013PC

You move one tile at a time and hold back waves of enemies with spear and shield, where every step has to be planned. Each run is procedurally generated and death resets you, turning it into a sharp tactical puzzler with a Greek flavour.

Ironcast

Runs that play out differently every time

Ironcast blends match-3 puzzle boards with turn-based steampunk mech battles in an alternate Victorian era. Each turn is about managing resources, and roguelite runs keep the challenge fresh.

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.

Desktop Dungeons: Rewind

Runs that play out differently every time

A compact tactical roguelike where every short dungeon run plays like a puzzle: exploration, fights, spells and pacts with gods must be carefully balanced. This remake adds new content and a rewind feature to soften the sting of mistakes.

SanctuaryRPG

Runs that play out differently every time

You crawl through dungeons in a retro ASCII world, fighting turn by turn with a humorous, tactical edge drawn from roguelikes and JRPGs. Its appeal lies in careful strategy and a deliberately old-school presentation, though my knowledge of this title is limited.

Shogun Showdown

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based tactical roguelike set in feudal Japan where you manage positioning, attack order and upgradeable ability tiles on a narrow lane. Every turn feels like a small puzzle, and strong combos decide whether you reach the Shogun.

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.

Bad North

Challenging difficulty

A minimalist real-time tactics game where you defend small islands against Viking raids with a few squads. Charming low-poly visuals and simple controls meet surprisingly deep combat and roguelite runs.

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.
