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
  • Tactical depth
  • Lots of humour

Fits your focus: Combat like SanctuaryRPG.

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.

Rogue

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.

Hoplite

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.

Peglin

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.

Brutal Orchestra

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.

Rogue Fable III

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.

Runestone Keeper

  • Combat like SanctuaryRPG

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.
