  • Turn-based combat
  • Challenging difficulty
  • Fantasy setting

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

Turn-based combat

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

Turn-based combat

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

Turn-based combat

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.

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.

Dungeons of Dredmor

Turn-based combat

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.

One Way Heroics

Turn-based combat

A roguelike RPG where a deadly darkness creeps in from the left and forces you ever rightward. Every step counts, so you must weigh gear, locations and risks carefully before it catches you.

MidBoss

Turn-based combat

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.
