Egoboo gathers its inspiration from the Roguelike genre of games. However, unlike Roguelikes, Egoboo uses 3D graphics and is played in realtime.

Story

Egoboo is a game set in the realm of Bishopia. King Bishop, the lord of the realm, has been kidnapped. It is your task to find his location by gathering the Sporks of Power. "If you think that sounds a little bit silly, you're right, it does, and we like it that way."

Features

  • Full 3D, with SDL and OpenGL
  • No Permadeath
  • Predesigned maps
  • Fixed characters (Often associated with specific maps)
