Rogue's Tale reviews and comments

Translated by

Rogue and NetHack were old Role-playing Games from the 80S that consisted only of Text characters. Hero was a @ and S snake Etc. There's more Graphics here. But it's just Java Game and only the Pixel.No Combat Animation or anything like that move! At Most, you can see a Knife or a Fireball flying! Otherwise, the Opponents only move towards each other and the Damage symbols fly high ... That's it! It's also less about the Graphics and more about the Game! What is new is that you can control a lot about the Mouse. You can view the Inventory as an Image. Items on and down is possible! This was all done before only with Text input! There is now also sound! To the Game itself: It's EXTREM SCHWER. This was the case in the past. It's also Unfair! Any Opponent can be the End. When you die is really ENDE! No new Store or anything like that. Death is Final One can also be poisoned or trap and die. There is the S Button to search for Traps. However, it is not said that one finds the Trap. It Is best to press the S Button after a few Steps. But not too often. Because you get Hungry & Thirst after a Time. Ah yes you start with just a Knife and 6x of Food and drink. There is a Shop in the City. You can buy new Food + Drink. But it's expensive! You can try to sell the Loot, but voher the Loot has to be identified ... The Problem is that EVERYTHING needs to be identified, even Water ... So you can sell almost nothing. Identify costs 20 Gold. Most Of the Items are Worth 2-10 Gold. It's often a Loss Business! If you make it a Pair of Levels down, several Enemies come up once. Even if you can defeat one, the others will get you ready! So Fleeing Stairs high doesn't go in Battle. Life Energy can be recovered by Eating and Resting. Which often doesn't work. Because where there is nothing can become nothing. Raking in Battle, of course, Doesn't work, healing Potions can be found. But identify first. Something To Drink can mean the End! Cursed Items are also available btw. It's totally frustrating! I don't know how to create the Normal Fashion! And there are still power Challenges to this!!! TO GLÜCK GIBT IT DEN "Don nous t hurt me" Fashion!!! You can start as a Class: Knight, Magician, Paladin or something. Then you have Weapons, Armor, (Salvation) Magic Potions and above all Skills! Such as Healing or Damage Attacks. That's still hard but you come forward and you can sell stuff in the Shop that aren't identified!!! That's a Big Advantage-You always have Money to buy Food & Drink! I would say this is the best Rogue Like title available at The moment!
