Amiga roguelikes?
« on: March 20, 2012, 09:10:54 PM »
What roguelike RPGs are available for the amiga?

Anything to recommend in particular?

Is there an amiga version of Angband out there?

there's a lot of fuss about what does or does not make a game rogue-like. The elements I think are most important are

Random dungeon
Single character
Permanent death (at least as an option)
Turn based


Thats pretty vague of course

Ive been on a really big roguelike spree lately so if you do, we should exchange thoughts and comments :)

Huuuuuge fan of Crawl (Dungeon crawl stone soup). Played Dungeons of dredmor, Doom RL and TOME too.

Just getting into Angband, as my first "classic" roguelike i guess.


Very keen to see there's a version on the miggy :)

I've been into roguelikes for a while, but I've never been much good at them :D DoomRL is the only one I've gotten even halfway good at.


Im ****e at them too :)

as an aside (and not amiga) but Frozen Depths is quite fun. A bit of a different beast.
