❤ Explore Randomly Generated Dungeons

As you navigate through the procedurally-generated floors, you cautiously uncover the map, revealing a variety of interactive elements. Breakable objects, treasure chests, and teleportation pads dot the grid-based environments, incentivizing thorough exploration.

❤ Engage in Turn-Based Tactical Combat

When you encounter enemies, the game shifts into a turn-based combat mode. On each turn, you can choose to move, attack with your equipped weapon, cast a spell from one of six elemental schools (fire, ice, earth, air, light, and dark), or use a consumable item. Enemies take their turns as well, forcing you to carefully consider your actions and respond to their unique abilities.

❤ Leverage Elemental Weaknesses

The elemental alignment of your spells and the enemy's characteristics are crucial factors in combat. You can exploit an enemy's weaknesses or defend against their attacks by selecting the appropriate elemental approach. This strategic depth adds an extra layer of challenge to battles.

❤ Acquire and Enhance Loot

As you delve deeper into the dungeons, you'll acquire a variety of weapons, armor, and magical items. These pieces of equipment can be further enhanced through a leveling system. Each item has a 'rank' that increases as it is used, unlocking new random affixes and boosting its power. This encourages you to regularly swap out and upgrade your gear.

❤ Manage Your Wizard's Tower

Between dungeon runs, you can return to the town of Antarit to manage various facilities. These include shops to purchase supplies, a cauldron for crafting consumables, and an enchanter to improve your gear. You can also recruit NPCs to these facilities, unlocking new functionality as the town develops. This town-building element provides a break from the dungeon crawling and allows you to customize your experience.

❤ Choose Your Path

Rogue Wizards offers two distinct gameplay modes: Story Mode and Gauntlet Mode. Story Mode follows a linear narrative campaign, while Gauntlet Mode is a pure rogue-like experience with permadeath. Both modes feature the same core dungeon crawling and combat mechanics, catering to both casual and hardcore rogue-like enthusiasts.
