Pocket Rogue: ClassicRoguelike GAME

◆ The Essence of Classic Roguelikes on Your Smartphone
"Pocket Rogue" is a traditional dungeon-crawling RPG created with profound respect for the masterpieces that define the roguelike genre.
All graphics in this game are represented entirely by text symbols (ASCII art).
"@" is you (the player), and "A-Z" are vicious monsters.
It looks incredibly simple, but this app is packed with the thrilling depth that true roguelikes are known for. One wrong step leads to instant game over (permadeath). You will face a severe battle for survival, the looming threat of starvation, and the strategic use of unidentified items to overcome desperate situations.

◆ Overwhelmingly Accessible, Endlessly Addictive
Optimized for smartphones, the UI allows for smooth one-handed play!
Enjoy a full-scale hack-and-slash experience anywhere, anytime—perfect for your daily commute.
The dungeon layout and item drops change randomly with every attempt. If you fall, your level resets to 1. Conquer the ever-changing Abyss (50 floors in total) armed with nothing but your own knowledge and experience.

◆ The Abyss Challenged by Players Worldwide
Now supporting 9 languages, including English, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and newly added Spanish, Portuguese, and German! Roguelike fans from all over the world are challenging this cruel labyrinth every day.
Earn a high score and carve your adventurer's name into the world rankings!
