Exploring Roguelike Games

(John Harris is) "the godfather of console roguelike journalism" - Jeremy Parish

A compilation of seven years of John Harris' columns with substantial new material, Exploring Roguelike Games from CRC Press (Amazon) celebrates a genre of computer games that, not that long ago, were basically unknown. While it seems that every other game on Steam now calls itself a roguelike, the classic titles of the genre, Rogue, NetHack, Angband, ADOM, Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup and Brogue, are still out there and still enjoyed by many, and this is the perfect book to learn about them.
