Melee is in many roguelikes a matter of moving into the square of a monster to attack it with the wielded weapon. Melee attacks can in many roguelikes be dodged, blocked (if wielding a shield) and/or parried. Chances of success are typically based on either or both of stats and skills. If a melee attack hits its damage may be reduced by worn armor, depending on the combat system used.
