Roguecraft DX – ZX Spectrum Next

Roguecraft DX is a retro-inspired turn-based roguelike all about simplicity and fun. Explore procedurally generated dungeons with mysterious potions, scary chickens, and secret rooms waiting to be discovered. 

This is the DX version of the award winning Amiga game released in 2024, and was released as a smash hit on Evercade in 2025. 

Backstory:

The deeper dungeons of Mordecoom await…

For time immemorial, legend has told of a dark, deadly dungeon containing unimaginable horrors and riches beyond belief. Enough riches and magic to make you a king… or more…

Through many trials and perils, you are now standing at the entrance of a dark and mystical dungeon far from where you started. You, Zendar — a fighter, a mage, or uh, a rogue — are ready to defeat the monsters and gather the riches waiting below.

You just need to take a leak first… 

Gameplay:

Roguecraft DX is an award-winning, retro-inspired, turn-based roguelike that’s all about simplicity and fun. Explore procedurally generated dungeons laden with mysterious potions, scary chickens, and secret rooms just waiting to be discovered.

Can you conquer the maze-like depths of the dungeons and defeat the terrifying tentacle-toting boss on the final level? You only have one life, so be careful, but if you reach the end there are wonderful rewards to be gathered!

Good luck, brave warrior!
