Roguelike
Roguelike (or rogue-like) is a subgenre of role-playing computer games traditionally characterized by a dungeon crawl through procedurally generated levels, turn-based gameplay, grid-based movement, and permanent death of the player character. Most roguelikes are based on a high fantasy narrative, reflecting their influence from tabletop role playing games such as ''Dungeons & Dragons''. Though '' Beneath Apple Manor'' predates it, the 1980 game '' Rogue'', which is an ASCII based game that runs in terminal or terminal emulator, is considered the forerunner and the namesake of the genre, with derivative games mirroring ''Rogue''s character- or sprite-based graphics. These games were popularized among college students and computer programmers of the 1980s and 1990s, leading to hundreds of variants. Some of the better-known variants include ''Hack'', ''NetHack'', ''Ancient Domains of Mystery'', '' Moria'', '' Angband'', ''Tales of Maj'Eyal'', and ''Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup''. ...
