Cryme

Great port of an old favorite. Takes me back to the 80s playing Rogue on the Atari ST. Worth the price of admission.

Great game

This is a very fun game, dont let the price keep you away from it. Can be played for a minute when you get the chance or for a couple hours which I really enjoy

BROKE on iOS6

Used to be 5 stars ALL DAY, upgraded to the new OS and SADLY my ALL-TIME favorite iPhone game broke!!!!Cant ascend stairs only way to get to the inventory is to double click your character (VERY BAD in a fight) P L E A S E update we all LOVE this game!!!

Awesome game!

Great game! Thanks for the update! Will look forward for more games like this!

Help!! Need iOS 6 patch 2.0

Cant remove ANY armor even starting armor. Aarghh! I had a +2/+2 flaming katana !!!!!!!!!

So good!

Great all around. I just wish it could go even further than rogue. Nethack? classes? Different dungeons to explore? Achievements? Also, please update screen for iPhone 5!!!

Tried the rest... This is the best!

Yay fixed for iOS6!!! Still the best rogue-like on the App Store! Thanks dev you rock!! Ive tried all of the roguelike games and this one is the only one I keep coming back to. It is 100% true to the original, and if I could give it 10 stars I would. If you liked the nostalgic era rogue, you will love this portable version that will frustrate you and entertain you at the same time for hours and hours on end. I managed to beat it once in the hundreds of times Ive played it and I keep chasing that high of beating it again. Best rogue clone in the app store hands down!!

Old-school fun

Very good game for the price. It takes me back to playing Rogue on the Mac in college (too many years ago!). Im looking forward to the bug fixes and updates.

Great game.

Ive had hours of fun on this game, so thanks. Looking forward to the big new update.

Fix needed

Can go down stairs now but cant remove armor.

Armor Problem

Just download the game, so far everything is good except unable to remove the armor. Also when I use Vorpalize Weapon scroll, my weapon disappears (vaporized).

Excellent

Excellent rogue-like game that really stays very true to the original with some nice new features and updates. Good job.

Excellent Rogue port worth your $

I really like this smoothly designed port of the classic Rogue dungeon crawl. The original game was a try-die-try-again game and this game replicates that same fun frustration. The addition of hidden character names helps dial down that frustration when you dont like it. The graphics and controls are well done and enjoyable. I would buy this game again.

So much potential, if only...

...the game werent so reliant on luck to win. The amount of skill required is so minimal that it gets frustrating and repetitive. You can get a powerful magic item, get good armor, do everything like youre supposed to, and then not find food forever and starve to death. Or, you can do everything like youre supposed to and then fall in a trap that leads you to a room of dragons, griffins and death. The point is, what you do has little effect on the success or failure of the game compared to the amount of luck you have. If this were uncommon, that would be one thing, but it happens over and over and over. Any game that has no way of winning without a bunch of luck is nothing more than the skill level of a slot machine. Its fun for a little while, and then it gets old and frustrating. Give the player some way of altering the outcome regardless of the magic items they get or how lucky they are with food or potions or the like (a shop or trader?), and the game would be a lot more fun. As it is now, it is fun for a little bit and then its about as much fun as a slot machine. Sorry, Commander Data, I gave it 5 stars when I first got it, and then I played it for a little while and felt like it got really, really old really, really fast.

Perfect if saves were allowed!!!

Please allow for saves, this would allow for more funness! I would even pay extra for the save option!

Best roguelike on the iPhone!

All we need now is iPhone 5 screen resolution and it will be perfect!!!

Perfect port

Rogue is my favorite game of all time and this port adds graphics and an interface update without sacrificing the classic gameplay. This was worth every penny!

Problem

I love these type of games, but I have always encountered a problem which involves being put into a dungeon with no exit or enemies. In this game I had to uninstall the entire thing, then I had to reinstall, just to try and remake a brand new game. This issue is getting a bit ridiculous, and it is making the gameplay a monotonous chore that I have to work with day in and day out. Maybe adding a restart menu would help ease the pain.

Fantastic, Unforgiving Dungeon Crawl

This game is what it is. Simple, intuitive graphics and controls allow you to plumb the depths of a dangerous dungeon, battling baddies along the way. Careful though, that next potion might make you more powerful, or be a flask of poison.

Unfinished?

This seems like an unfinished version of the old ASC dungeon crawlers ala Moria and Angband. It has many of the features I remember but enough is lacking that I cant understand why Im playing the game. For instance, you cant seem to go upstairs, only down. In the finished versions Ive played you could ascend to town to buy supplies, etc. in this game gold seems to be useless as theres nowhere to spend it. Also, Mage classes have no spells making them somewhat useless as classes. Hopefully this is a work in progress and will be updated soon. I wouldnt spend any money on it until then.
