Games like SanctuaryRPG

2014PC

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.

  • Runs that play out differently every time
  • Turn-based combat
  • Lots of humour

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.

Peglin

Fantasy setting

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.

Sproggiwood

Tactical depth

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.

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.

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.

Runestone Keeper

Strong character progression

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.

Dicey Dungeons

Lots of humour

You're a living die forced into a game show, fighting turn-based duels by smartly assigning your dice rolls to equipment. Each of the six characters changes the rules, all wrapped in plenty of humor and a bright, colorful look.

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.

Rogue Fable III

Tactical depth

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.

Brutal Orchestra

Lots of humour

A turn-based roguelike set in Purgatory where you lead a motley crew through tactical, position-based fights in pursuit of petty revenge. Dark humor and a quirky hand-drawn look define the experience.
