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

Brings what grabs you about SanctuaryRPG: runs that differ every time, turn-based combat and plenty 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.

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

Runs that play out differently every time

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.

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.

Dungeons of Aether

Runs that play out differently every time

You descend through turn-based dungeons where every decision can carry you deeper or end your run early. It lets you take your time, yet stays demanding throughout.

Sproggiwood

Runs that play out differently every time

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.

WazHack

Runs that play out differently every time

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

Runs that play out differently every time

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.

Loot Rascals

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based hex-grid roguelike where positioning, enemy movement patterns and clever loot combos decide each run. Its vivid retro sci-fi look and quirky humor give it a distinct personality.

Cogmind

Runs that play out differently every time

A turn-based sci-fi roguelike where you play a robot that constantly rebuilds itself from parts scavenged off other machines. Every choice in loadout, tactics and hacking matters, and no run plays the same.
