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
