Willy and Charlie: Solitaire
It's a Slay-the-Spire inspired, "roguelite", head to head solitaire deckbuilding game for a post-Balatro world.

Do you like #Roguelikes? Or me talking? Of course you do!
Come digitally see a bunch of great people in the Roguelike space, and also me. I've been prepping a great talk on MCTS algorithms, and I'm getting excited. I'll be talking Sunday morning AEDT (Saturday afternoon ET)
I am thinking I spent too long on the algorithm demonstrations, but they came out great at the cost of some significant amount of sanity points.

My second favorite is #NetHack which I realize is absolutely no original choice when it comes to #roguelikes, but maybe I‘m just very basic in my taste.

Did that '9 games that shaped me' thing (do yours at https://my9games.net). Many of these won't be surprises, I've written about most of these (here: https://spacetimetech.wordpress.com/2024/04/06/20-video-games-i-cant-stop-thinking-about and here: https://spacetimetech.wordpress.com/2025/11/23/15-great-games-you-could-play-on-a-mac-performa-575-in-1994)
Ms. Pac-Man was the first arcade game I loved as a kid in the 80s, Kirby I played on a friends' Game Boy, just as I did with Diablo, on a friends' PC. Sim City I played first at school, and all the other 90s ones (Wolfenstein, Doom, Sim Ant, etc) would have been on our own family Mac or PC. I referenced Rogue here, I actually played Mac Moria first, but same thing.

When I need a quick game to jump into for a bit, I often go for Heroes of Loot (either the first OR 2). I've been playing them a while now. Maybe I'll beat one of them someday. 😂 They're such a blast. Super satisfying.

Are #IndieGames Developing a Gambling Problem?
https://thisweekinvideogames.com/feature/are-indie-games-developing-a-gambling-problem/
> Gambling-themed #roguelikes are helping #indiedev hit the jackpot.
This article goes deep on the #gamedesign mechanics that make games feel addictive, and their ethical implications.
I've explored these topics in the context of #instructionaldesign and #gamification where they affect #motivation, #persistence with hard tasks, and #grit.

As a reminder for youngsters, there are 3 types of games:
1. Rogue
2. Rogue-like
3. not Rogue-like

That feeling when you come across an abandoned 35 year old PC in an aircraft hangar and you think to yourself “I could probably get netBSD and some roguelikes running on that thing…”

This is the game I've been playing on the Deck. Works pretty great on there. It's super lofi graphics, but great loot and stash system, battle, buffs, it's a decent roguelike. When a game hooks me, it hooks me. And just a couple bucks. You die a lot! And lose everything, of course. Great bite sized runs.

Slartboz: "Pain Am Havingk!"
demo of my WIP realtime Roguelike adventure game, Slartboz, set in a dystopic post-apocalyptic NorMerika of 2100 CE. ie. ideal comedy material
And before you ask: yes, it does feature plenty of crazy and dangerous AI minds! Some throb and pulsate, however.

Rogue Solitaire: a TRUE Roguelike Card Game
I have written a 100% authentic Rogue experience in a standard deck of cards. Complete rules inside!

The things in Rogue that kill me most aren't even monsters. It's traps, by far. Dying from hypothermia, fire, falling in a pit, having the roof collapse. Things that just take you out fast, before you even have time to react.
Just like real life.
