1001 Rogues

WEBGAME Here today, gone tomorrow

-

Roguelikes are already near-endless, as they reconfigur­e the world every time you kick the bucket, shuffling items, tiles and enemies about. But browser-based death labyrinth 1001Rogues takes things a step further, by generating a fresh story every day. Play this today and you might be a space marine slaughteri­ng mutants, play it tomorrow and you’ll be battling mythologic­al creatures. While it will play similarly each time, the sprites, item names and color palette will shift about. It’s unclear how many stories there are—1001, perhaps?—but given the game’s brevity, and pile of scenarios, don’t be surprised to find yourself returning to this daily. DOWNLOAD AT bit.ly/1001Rogues
