What is a Roguelike?

CTctB.png

A Roguelike is usually described as a free turn-based computer game with a strong focus on intricate gameplay and replayability, and an abstract world representation using ASCII-based display, as opposed to 3D graphics. Of course, as with any genre, there are deviations from the norm.

Roguelikes allow the player an indefinite amount of time in which to make a move, making gameplay comparable more to chess than to reflex-based games like first-person shooters. Since graphics are limited (if not completely shunned), the player's imagination must come into play - gameplay is more like reading a book than watching a movie.

Of course, the best way to understand what Roguelikes are is to download and play one.

Roguelikes

Many Roguelikes are freely available online. The most influential are known as the Major Roguelikes:

ADOM · Angband · Crawl · NetHack · ToME

Before their rise in popularity in the late 80s and 90s, the genre was dominated by the Major Classic Roguelikes:

Rogue · Hack · Moria · Larn · Omega

Since the control systems of these Roguelikes are geared towards "expert" players, the novice player may be interested in trying a 'lighter' game like some of the coffeebreak roguelikes or just dive in at the deep end and find a roguelike game to suit you.
