Thank you for the nice list, though.

Cheers, jumped the gun a bit on that one

Eldritch and Tower of Guns are both darn good, albeit a fair bit different - do any of the others listed compare favourably to them? And yeah, it's probably my favourite sub-genre of roguelites. Thanks for the list, by the way.

It is.

Depths of Fear:: Knossos is a new-ish (released earlier this year) first person roguelike based on an old Greek story. It's got great atmosphere but I can't say I fully recommend it. Combat has no feel nor feedback, the animations are a bit silly and it's rough around all of it's edges. Plus it has the annoying "feature" of "here is a trap that will kill the player if they step on it but tricking a boss into running onto the trap will have no effect on the boss because it isn't the preplanned (and only) way to defeat them".

Delver on the other hand I fully recommend it. It looks great, sounds great and has satisfying gameplay, I'd love to see it here on GOG eventually.

What are your criteria for a rogue-like / rogue-lite and how strict are they? I guess the following might not really fit in that definition, but at least they seem to meet the criterion of randomly generated First Person environments:

- Receiver
- Paranormal

Eldritch and ToG are probably the best on that list. Heavy Bullets is quite nice, but demands a much more careful approach (you have 1 gun with 6 bullets, you need to pick up the bullets again after you have shoot them...), fancy skulls is comparable to Binding of Isaac. Ziggurat shows promise, but feels a little bit empty at the moment. Delver is quite nice (the only one on the list more traditional first person dungeon crawler), but the rest is a bit hit and miss depending on taste. I liked them all, though. Gentrive 2, particularly, is an interesting game, Phr00t wanted to make a first person metroidvania. hmm.... how I see it is that it needs to be randomly generated, have perma-death and some form item management with drops. I have not really tried Receiver yet, but I feel Paranormal is more a horror / puzzle / exploration game than a rougelike. it is also DRM free already (via Humble) Cheers, did not know about this one. Will put it on my "to try list" :) As Gragar says, it is out already. Seems that they abandoned updating their own website as soon as they got a Steam page.... anyway....

That game seems to be in perpetual beta....

As far as permadeath goes, Duke Nukem 3D technically has it if you don't save.

Also, Teleglitch isn't first-person, but one reviewer described it as a "2D top-down survival rogue-like version of Doom". It has shooting and monsters and all!

Honestly i like the idea but i haven't found one that i really liked.

3079/89 - Too much complicated, they just throw you into the game and say good luck;

Depths of Fear: Knossos - It's a broken mess, the game by itself it's really bland/mediocre and still has some glitches after a few months (last time i played i was climbing a ladder and somehow i was propelled into the sky and when i returned the floor was gone so i died).

Eldritch - I played it but i can't remember why i didn't like it, maybe i should give it another go.

Rogue Shooter - It's ok but it gets a little boring, i'm giving it sometime before i play it again.

Paranautical Activity - Eh, again, it's ok but there's no much content.

Delver + Tower of Guns + Heavy Bullets + Ziggurat - I'll wait for a really good deal or for a bundle, i feel like kind of burned on this genre so i rather wait.

I'm guessing he's not in the slightest bit strict on this as rogue-likes are never first person.

Well, there goes Dungeon Hack

I was a bit shocked that anybody on this forum would be suggesting that a game could be something other than top down and tile based and still be a roguelike. By the OP's standards, Diablo would probably be considered Roguelike even though it's a different genre entirely.
