Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup

Tactical depth

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.

Pixel Dungeon

Turn-based combat

A streamlined turn-based pixel-art roguelike where you descend through randomly generated dungeon floors, gathering items and hunting for the Amulet of Yendor. Permadeath makes every run tense and every item choice matter.

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.

Turn-based combat

Villages & Dungeons

Tactical depth
