Rogue Simulator

Man Rogue was legit though. We could use a game like it, a genre even.

we should have a name for this genre of games. maybe rogueclones?

"Local man dies, starts over at age 0 with an extra point in stamina"

we have a term for this and it's 'procedural death labyrinth' sirs/madams

like rogue

no fucking way

If only someone could come up with a name for a genre where you traverse randomly generated dungeons, fighting monsters, and have to start back at the beginning when you die.

that really was the dark souls of early PC gaming

Yeah, It's called Mystery Dungeon, and there are hundreds of them.
