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.
The definition isn’t an absolutely hard one, but I think that DCSS would be pretty uncontroversially a roguelike.

See the section on “Berlin Interpretation”, which is one commonly-used set of factors to determine whether something is a roguelike.
Yeah, I can see the turnbased requirement there
oh wow that’s more restrictive than I thought it was
