The original roguelike, Rogue, is releasing on Steam

Rogue

Experience the commercial port of the game that spawned a thousand 'Rogue-likes'. Venture into the Dungeons of Doom in search of the legendary Amulet of Yendor, and hopefully escape with your life! Randomly generated dungeons await you, full of nasty monsters, insidious traps, and glittering loot.

Neat news in the world of Rogue-likers, Rogue itself is getting a Steam release later this month. That’s right, no flashy graphics here. Just good ol’ text characters as the Dungeons of Doom were meant to be experienced. It will be available on October 20th.
