Saege is a unique game that, while influenced by popular roguelikes such as Angband and ADOM, strives to break free of the typical dive-100-levels-and-retrieve-the-amulet roguelike mold. In Saege, you aren't breaking into a dungeon-- you're breaking out. You wake in a cell with an open door and your task is to climb 100 levels to escape the Dungeons of the Saege. The Saege, an extremely powerful dark magician, is the being who captured you in the first place. You must evade his minions and grow in experience and power as you ascend through his Dungeons. To escape you must engage him in combat using the knowledge and skill you gained through your adventures. Another way Saege is unique is that it has neither gold nor shops (who in their right mind would want to set up a shop in a crazy dark magician's cellar?).


Finally, there are no strictly defined classes; instead, the dungeon decides what you're going to be by what it throws at you. If you find an abundance of weapons you'll probably wind up a warrior. If you find lighter weapons you might end up a rogue; if on the other hand you opt for heavier weapons and armor, you'll probably find yourself a two-handed-sword wielding juggernaut. If you find ranged weapons, you'll probably end up an archer of some kind. If you ignore the weapons and go for scrolls, spellbooks, staves, and wands, you'll likely end up as a mage of some sort.


Saege is currently in an alpha stage. Unfortunately, it must run on a server, so it won't be accessible until the developer uploads it, which may not be for some time.
