Play abandoned roguelike RPGs in your browser

Roguelikes are a fascinating subgenre of role-playing games that have always captured my interest. Defined by features like permadeath and procedurally generated dungeons, roguelikes offer an exceptionally high level of replayability: no two runs are ever the same.
The history of roguelikes stretches back to the very early days of video gaming. The genre takes its name from Rogue, a game first developed in the late 1970s, which laid the foundation for every title that followed.
Abandonware DOS is home to a selection of these classic roguelikes. Some are well-known pillars of the genre, while others are hidden gems, obscure RPGs crafted by passionate, often anonymous developers. Whether you're looking to revisit old favorites or discover something new, you’ll find a variety of roguelikes available to download, and quite a few you can even play directly in your browser:
- Rogue - the father of all roguelikes
- Hack
- Dungeon Crawl
- Moria - from The Lords of the Rings
- Larn
- Angband
- Alphaman - a sci-fi RPG
- Evets
- Amulet of Yendor
- Beneath Apple Manor - one of the earliest RPGs with procedural content
