Episode 100 continues with the big 4 first games like Rogue! If only there was some tortured genre name for these types of games…
Lots of fun correspondence from both Mastodon and emails, including a (slightly edited for time) great voicemail message!
Come for the LotR chiptunes, stay for the maximum entropy!

Game 7 of our 100th episode special in July will focus on one of the first coffee break length roguelikes: Larn!
A much shorter game than its contemporaries, the main dungeon is only 10 floors, but features 100 levels of difficulty and ... taxes???
Still being updated today and celebrating it's 40th anniversary!

Found this wonderful Larn page today. Larn is a Rogue like adventure game. You can play Larn in the browser with an Amiga mode! Very cool. Takes me back to the 90s. 😎 🎉 👍

This put a BIG SMILE in my face. -
Killed INSTANTLY by a dragon. Was doing well, too. Ah, roguelikes.

Done a couple Larn runs the last couple days, some better than others. You learn things every time. For example, hell hounds can kill you pretty much instantly. 😂

When you get enlightened but then get slain seconds later.
Oh, the irony
