Its the original game. Simpler controls than other rogues of the era, yet a lot of depth on the game. the randomness of the runs can be a pain sometimes, but it's always great to have a game that you can play now an then, in bursts.

The game that started roguelikes (though some might argue the point). This is a nice packaging of the Epyx DOS version with a PDF of the original manual. Runs very smoothly on my Windows 11 machine.

I've been playing this game for about 15 years with my brother and my late father (rest in peace) and none of us have ever even come close to beating it. So sad that he couldn't have bore witness to all the promising runs eviscerated by a Griffin or Medusa since his passing. One day I will have kids, and I'm not sure I'll ever beat this game in my lifetime, however I will pass down my wisdom for generations until somebody in my lineage finally beats this fucking game. 11/10, truly one of the best games ever made and influential beyond description.

I actually have a hard time getting into this game. It's just way too random for my tastes. But that's my hangup, and it isn't the game's fault. I can see the appeal of this and understand why it's such a classic. So I do recommend this but just know that the trailer isn't kidding when it says this game is unforgiving.

Rogue - Review So, that's where it all began - the first rogue-like title. It might feel a little archaic if you've never played it before, but after you spend an hour or two on getting used to the controls and the gameplay, it's hella addicting. Just the idea of each playthrough being different made me want to play the game more and more. It might sound a wee bit stupid now, since it's nothing revolutionary in 2024, but it was a big thing, back when the game was released. If you want to know more about a huge piece of gaming history, go ahead and buy Rogue, especially for such a silly price!
