Recently I've started playing a game called "The tombs", and I challenge anyone who calls himself a RPG gamer to try and just beat the first level, let alone the game, it's a rogue-like so if your not ready to buckle down for some good ol' ass whippings you probably shouldn't play. I'll provied a link to the manual to the game and the game itself, but for those of you who want to start getting pounded right away, I'll give you the gist of it:
Have num lock on, and use the number pad to move, 7 is diagonal upper left, 8 is upper middle, 9 is upper right,and 5 is to pickup/interact with things below you, you get the idea right? When you begin, it's a bit like fallout, you have points, and you spend them on abilities or skills, from there, buy what you want, and start getting eaten by bats.
If this was to confusing, just read the manual or dive into the game.

This thread is mainly just to test your epic RPG skillz, and if anybody finds a way to beat even the first level, please tell me how, I've only made it to the second after 30 minutes :/.

Meh, I'll stick to Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode for my rogue-like escapades.

Somehow has a less steep learning curve.

Sorry for the double post.

I beat the first level! I just dumped all the starting points into vigor and then went to town on everything. From there as I grew in levels I just put it into general fighting skills completely ignoring magic. I think I am level 7 right now so I put a bit into the magic but for the most part my guy is some giant beefy nutjob wearing straw pants and a straw hat killing rats and whatnot with a hammer.
