So Nethack updated to 3.6. This is not a joke. They actually updated Nethack. I repeat, this is NOT a joke.

EDIT: Wrong thread but still relevant.

Needs more :siren:.

Wait, seriously? The last I can find mention of an official release was back in 2003. It's literally been over a decade since the last release.

Technically not a rogue like I think. I didn't realize that until I had a wipe. A retro open world and dungeon crawler on iOS with a 6 person party, but it's pretty minimal and sophisticated at the same time. Turn based with a lot of classes and a good amount of variation in the them. I haven't unlocked or even figured out how to unlock a bunch of them yet. Tanks, rogues, cleric, mage... But then monks, rangers, in the basic roll up, etc. Eventually unlocks things like Samurai. I have tried a bunch of the iOS crawlers and haven't liked them. This one is satisfying, to me at least, maybe because the choices between turn based and auto seem good to me and it has taken me a few tries to figure out party /skill balance and such. Some of the fights you have to run everything yourself and use all the skills or you get wiped, but the trash fights you can preset and just run.

Brogue is my go to roguelike on iOS, though I liked FTL a lot. I don't love the Nethack iOS port.

I honestly know a lot of ipad roguelikes to present (hoplite, 868 hack, dream quest, dungeonmans, ending...) but don't know how to record off a computer much less an ipad. I'll totally learn though. someday.

Depends on whether you have a PC or a Mac. You have to jailbreak or mirror to record. For mirroring if you have a Mac with Yosemite it is is easy. Just plug the iOS device into the computer and use QuickTime. Reflector and Mobcrush also work. I use Reflector. I think Reflector works on PC. Not sure about Mobcrush.
