HyperRogue

zenorogue |

You are a lone adventurer in a strange, non-Euclidean world. Gather as much treasure as you can before the nasty monsters get you. Explore about 50 different lands, each with its own unique treasures, enemies, and terrain obstacles. Your quest is to find the legendary treasure, the Orbs of Yendor. Collect one of them to win! Or just ignore your quest and collect smaller treasures. The twist is the unique, unusual geometry of the world: it is one of just few games which takes place on the hyperbolic plane. Witness a grid composed of hexagons and heptagons, straight lines which seem to be parallel, but then they diverge and never cross, triangles whose angles add up to less than 180 degrees, how extremely unlikely is it to reach the same place twice due to practically infinite size of the world (centillions of locations in just 700 steps from the starting point), and how the world seems to be rotated when you do return. All this matters for the gameplay.

While the IndieDB page of HyperRogue was dead for two years, the development itself was very much alive!

HyperRogue now has:

  • more than 50 lands, each with unique monsters, treasure, magical Orb power, and mechanics
  • more modern look -- 3D graphics, sound effects
  • tons of special modes which change the gameplay or display greatly, including the Orb Strategy Mode focusing on long-term resource management, and the real-time Shmup Mode
  • and as always, the world is bigger than anything Euclidean!

HyperRogue, the non-Euclidean roguelike, is a mind-melting masterpiece (Rock Paper Shotgun)

Have fun!
