I've been playing this game since the 80s, and I've actually won it a handfull of times. I thought I'd post some tips for winning--some may be obvious, others...
Just to add something I forgot to mention about the detect magic trick--when you drop stuff for the detect magic potion, don't drop scrolls because scare...
I was going to mention this. I usually drop all my scrolls (after writing down their names first) just before I exit a level. Then I can quickly ID the scare...
It's tempting to save games, but I prefer not to. I do quit games in various situations, like if I'm getting lousy promotions or I hit level 10 without any...
The exploding pack has happened to me exactly once. I have no idea, no explanation. Wish I did. The 123, 321 you find yourself in a strange place is (I assume)...
I still can't get over the fact that I'm not the only one who still plays this game. I remember when I first started playing Rogue on my Tandy 1000 (on 5 1/4"...
Heh...or dragon hunt...which is what I call it. L's are good, but I would just bypass the amulet and leave it for the way back and go deeper to hunt to...
Hello! I´m new here (also at roguelike games). Well, I have been playing Nethack for some weeks. I really like that game but recently I saw a picture where...
Hey all! Just dropping in to let you know that my old roguelike restoration project at sourceforge.net is still around. I had to do a new round of source...
Excellent! Thanks for the update...heh...just a question...when I used to play Super Rogue back in the early 80's on an HP mainframe, you could eat just about...
just tried to eat my short bow, didn't work. so i guess that was fixed at some point! ... used to play Super Rogue back in the early 80's on an HP mainframe, ...
Try eating a ring. I don't recall if you could eat everything or only certain things. I remember this: If you ate a +1 strength ring (for example), your...
there is nothing in the code to suggest this. perhaps it was in an earlier version or a version of "advanced rogue" instead. ... only certain things. ... from...
Cool. I have no idea except that it was called "Super Rogue" and was running on a Unix system around 1985-1986 where I was working. Thomas Nick Kisseberth...
Nick, Thanks for the update, am finally back in the land of the living. Have just tried to downlaod Rogue 5.2 and Super Rogue 9.0 and it is not finding the...
The 5.2 links seems to be working off roguelike.sourceforge.net. Point me to a link that doesnt work and I will take a look. Super Rogue 9.0 is still only...
Nick, The link seems to point to the source for the emulators rather than the program - I definitely want the executable to test for you..... Honest. Once the...
There are two links on each line. One from "Rogue 5.2-1" and one for the emulator/API package (if any) being used. I should clean it up to be more clear. Click...
I just put up the executables for Super-Rogue 9.0 They are available in several flavors. DOS/Windows, Cygwin, Windows Services for Unix, Linux, AIX. I suggest...
what is the diffidence between super rogue and the restored version of the original rogue game? I downloaded both games and I can not seem to find the...
Super Rogue 9.0 has a double monster set (52 characters), a flea market, Magic Pools, Teleportation, and twisty mazes. Along with that are various new...
I downloaded the DOS/DJGPP version and it works fine under XP. _____ From: colinvdb [mailto:no_reply@yahoogroups.com] Sent: Saturday, March 26, 2005 1:37 AM ...
The DOS/DJGPP are the most generic to use under Windows. The other two require downloading and installing support infrastructure (Cygwin or Microsoft SFU). I...
Turns out the port to native Windows console mode is reasonably straight forward. Advanced Rogue 5.8 will include a native Windows console port and I will go...
No problem, you keep working I want all of those games, I can see me catching up on taking all of the holidays owed me...... Roguefest 2005 !!! Thanks, I will...
