What is Rogue's Tale?

This single-player, turn-based dungeon crawler sends you through randomized dungeons beneath Frostmourn Keep in the World's End Mountains. You fight enemies and build a character with talents and spells as you try to replace the keep's king. Death ends a run, but unlocked heritages strengthen future characters.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy learning difficult games through repeated dungeon runs
  • +you like experimenting with talents, spells, and heritages

Not for you if...

  • you want frequent progress without permanent character deaths
  • you dislike threats that can end a run suddenly
  • you prefer simple controls with fewer key commands

What players say

72% of 756 reviews are positive

Players praise the depth of character building and the progress that comes from learning the game and unlocking heritages. The most common complaint is that sudden deaths can feel random or poorly explained; some players also find the controls cumbersome.
