About Rogue

In the early 1980s, a computer game emerged that changed the world of fantasy gaming forever. Randomly generated rooms meant that each journey into the infamous Dungeons of Doom was unique. The potent combination of random generation with perma-death proved to be intoxicating, and the game was so influential it spawned an entire genre: "Rogue-likes".

Now you too can experience the thrill of dungeon crawling for the fabled Amulet of Yendor in this pioneering game.

The original Rogue had many different versions and variations, and was ported to a wide variety of computer platforms. This particular version is Epyx Rogue, one of the earliest versions designed for commercial distribution, ported to MSDOS on the IBM PC, and is v1.49 of that port.
  • Battle dozens of unique and powerful enemies.
  • Gather armor, weapons, food and other items to help you on your quest.
  • Scour rooms for secret hidden doors and traps.
  • Discover strange magical spells and potions, which have different wonderous effects every time you play the game.
  • Survive through 26 randomly generated levels, each more tricky and dangerous than the last, to find the Amulet, then escape... if you can!

How long has it been?

How many lifetimes have passed since I began my sojourn through this maze of underground passageways, of damp, dimly lit chambers? How long have I been alone, the only human among a menacing crew of hideous subterranean beasts, stumbling over forlorn reminders that others have passed this way before me... never to return!

Long before I forgot the warmth of the noonday sun or the refreshing coolness of the evening breeze, I forgot my name. Call me what you will. I am the Rogue.

I don't seem to be able to leave a comment on it so I'm gunna address the person with the wild username and negative vote in the reviews here and say this is my first time playing Rogue but this version's been great, and that they didn't add the QOL updates that user wanted simply because it's stated in the description on the store page, this is released as a very specific port of Rogue, and almost all those options already exist in this version of the game. Hitting F1 or ? Brings up a list of all the possible commands in the game, and hitting S (not s, gotta be a capital S) to save your game and return to it later (when you leave the game this way, launch it from your steam library and you'll be asked if you want to start a new run or continue your previous one. Which, from what I can find online, actually is easier than the original way). Beyond that though I don't blame anyone who doesn't enjoy it, it's a very different game from those that we have today and could be frustrating if you took it too seriously, but as long as you're okay with the game not being fair and are willing to laugh it off when the dungeon's just out to kill you it's a fun way to unwind and kill some tim…

I wish I had anything good to say about this. I really do. To be clear I think rogue is an incredible game that is absolutely woth playing, but this isn't the way to do so. Despite being basicaly the only paid, closed source version of rogue online, this has no QOL features, not config options, not even a proper save and continue on a later play session function. By far and away this is the worst way to experience the game. And you have to pay to play said worst release of the game. If there was any effort what so ever to make the steam version more playable out of the box so to speak, then I'd say it has some merit. But again, there are no settings for display resolution, view/change keybinds, or even a single change from the 1985 release aside from being sold on steam and running in dosbox. Do not listen to the positive reviews, they aren't wrong for the most part, they are just reviewing rogue, not this release of it.
