Hello friends! Is there a lemmy community for roguelikes? I am, in this case, looking for a place focused on more traditional roguelikes (DCSS, CCDDA, BROGUE, etc)

If there isn't one, no worries, send me you're favorite unknown traditional roguelikes. I'll tell you mine. It's called "Empires of Eradia" it's a more open combat focused RL with a unique twist on permadeath. It's got great crafting and a strong focus on risk reward.

Ultima Ratio Regum is an interesting thing. It's more of a culture generation experiment than a complete game. It procedurally generates detailed designs for basically every item around you, which will vary depending on which part of the world you are, whether this place is rich or poor, etc. For many things it generates a close-up image, in what can basically be called ASCII+ art (images which still use traditional roguelike console-like engine, but are drawn with colored rectangles and triangles, so it's not literally ASCII)
