Beschrijving

Rogue Touch is based on the classic dungeon crawler Rogue. This famous turn based adventure-RPG has been re-designed from the ground up for easy touch screen gaming, no crazy keyboard commands or dozens of hard to learn gestures here! Rogue Touch is so simple a child can play, but still offers deeply strategic gameplay and literally hundreds of hours of fun and replay value!

Your mission is simple: Explore the Dungeons of Doom while trying to retrieve the Amulet of Yendor... Descend into the depths, find and identify strange and powerful items... Learn how to use your pack full of equipment effectively against increasingly dangerous monsters. Few have made it out alive with the Amulet. Do you have what it takes?

If you liked games such as Torneko / トルネコ / Taloon or Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer (Chunsoft) you have to play Rogue Touch! Rogue is the great-grandfather of these games and spawned an entire genre of "roguelikes" over nearly 40 years.

Versie 2.0.64

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

Version 2.0.64:
* ZOMG an update, after 4 years!
* WOW its a big update!
* HEY there's a bunch of new and cool stuff in this update!
* 64-Bit Compatible, Position Independent Executable (iOS 8.0 is the new minimum requirement). Portions of the game engine have been re-written to support this as well as the other new features below... You don't even want to know the massive number of deprecations I had to fix dating back to the original support for iOS 2 (º_o)
* Retina Graphics - The dungeon never looked better thanks to a ton of new artwork by Jake Woodruff and a bit of tweaking by yours truly. Everything has been re-imagined in Hi-Res detail.
* Retina Text - Fixed again what has been broken for several iOS revisions, all text is now silky smooth.
* Play Your Own Music - Finally, seamless automatic detection means you can explore dungeons without interrupting your jam (or streaming, or podcast, or audiobook!). Rogue Touch also respects your mute switch.
* Gameplay Improvements - In addition to the classic "Search" for secret doors, you can simply walk into / push on walls where you believe the door is hidden. If you're correct it will be revealed automatically! Secret Doors and Traps may have small but noticeable visual differences now to help clue you in ;)
* Gameplay Improvements Part II - Interesting tweaks for extra damage and/or elemental immunities when weilding special weapons like ice, fire, electric, and blessed.
* Dungeon Improvements - Subtle tweaks to dungeon generator for room sizing, treasure placement, and more. Secret doors should nearly always lead somewhere interesting now, rather than a potential dead end.
* Pinch Zoom Improvements - Now you can enhance your view by zooming anywhere from 25% to 200% size to appreciate the detailed graphics close-up and personal.
* Settings Improvements - Finally, it's super easy access to RT settings, just touch the gear icon found in the upper left corner on the Title Screen.
* BUGFIXES - Lots of little annoying bugs fixed to provide a better dungeon exploring experience! Fixes for various crash conditions, stair placement bugs, and game-lockup at item use during the last turn before death are included.

If you enjoy playing this newly enhanced version of Rogue Touch, please write a review and let everyone know!

Nice, but too slow and too expensive

Rogue is a classic dungeonhack game from the 1980s with a large catalogue of monsters, a stack of items to discover and random dungeon generation each time. It's nearly impossible to complete, so any Rogue addict like myself plays the game over and over and over again.

This port however, is not half as addictive as the original. It's graphics are okay but slow the game down considerably. Double tapping to run through the maze is annoyingly unresponsive. The small screen layout worsens the cramped feel of the game. Surprisingly, there is no option for the ASCII mode which made the original so memorable and could speed up the game. The mini-map helps in keeping some perspective on the game, but is confusingly coloured and too small itself.

In short, this port feels nothing like Rogue, and is not worth the (considerable!) price. Playing Rogue involves quick gameplay, easy access to inventory, and fast movement through the maze. On all three counts, this port simply does not deliver. Get the free Rogue instead.

Rogue on-the-go

This fun and pocket-sized version of the classic Rogue game works incredibly well on the iPhone. Unlike the various computer versions out there, there are no keys to remember and use - just tap the screen to move your character, fight enemies, cast spells, equip your character etcetera. It really does work well. Like the original computer game, Rogue Touch is *hard* - it truly represents the original challenge in an unforgiving but always rewarding way. The developer of this iPhone version seems very committed to keep working on this port, adding user-requested features and the like (such as adding more sound effects and an online leaderboard), which is awesome indeed.

In a nutshell, Rogue Tough comes highly recommended for those who like a tough but always fun dungeon crawl! Enjoy!
