POWDER VS Tales of Maj'Eyal (ToME)

Powder is a fun roguelike for the gba (and other systems). Source: about 1 year ago

Going into slightly more obscure stuff, POWDER fits your criteria - original game, 16x16 default tile set with other tile sets available, Linux port available since the mid-aughts, etc. No idea if any distros had it in their repositories at the time, I only really played it on the DS.

I had nothing to do with roguelikes for many years, but one day I discovered POWDER, and it all suddenly clicked! Now roguelikes are muy favorite video game genre. No thanks to NetHack :). Source: almost 3 years ago

Since Brogue's already been mentioned, I'd add Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup and Tales of Maj Eyal as pretty beginner friendly games. Source: 5 months ago

Have you tried TOME? It's a free roguelike, but you can also buy it and the DLC (sold for $4-7 on his website) on Steam if you end up enjoying it. Source: 10 months ago

Try the free download from te4.org first! That is the full game, not a demo. It doesn't have the DLC, but then for most of its existence there were no DLC. I've spent years playing the main campaign before the DLC. Just the main game is huge and has lots of content. Source: 10 months ago

Also, what's the difference between the steam collector's edition and the te4.org version? I absolutely don't mind paying 10 eur, but first I want to clarify what's the difference. Source: 10 months ago

If you don't care about graphics. This could be right down your alley Https://te4.org/. Source: 10 months ago
