Description
Rogue Touch is based on the classic dungeon crawler Rogue. This famous turn based adventure-RPG has been re-designed from the ground up for easy touch screen gaming, no crazy keyboard commands or dozens of hard to learn gestures here! Rogue Touch is so simple a child can play, but still offers deeply strategic gameplay and literally hundreds of hours of fun and replay value!
Your mission is simple: Explore the Dungeons of Doom while trying to retrieve the Amulet of Yendor... Descend into the depths, find and identify strange and powerful items... Learn how to use your pack full of equipment effectively against increasingly dangerous monsters. Few have made it out alive with the Amulet. Do you have what it takes?
If you liked games such as Torneko / トルネコ / Taloon or Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer (Chunsoft) you have to play Rogue Touch! Rogue is the great-grandfather of these games and spawned an entire genre of "roguelikes" over nearly 40 years.

"Rogue Touch is really a dream-come-true for fans of the genre. It's an impressive adaptation of a true classic." - Blake Patterson, TouchArcade.com

Version history
2.0.64
2017-09-01
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Version 2.0.64:
* ZOMG an update, after 4 years!
* WOW its a big update!
* HEY there's a bunch of new and cool stuff in this update!
* 64-Bit Compatible, Position Independent Executable (iOS 8.0 is the new minimum requirement). Portions of the game engine have been re-written to support this as well as the other new features below... You don't even want to know the massive number of deprecations I had to fix dating back to the original support for iOS 2 (º_o)
* Retina Graphics - The dungeon never looked better thanks to a ton of new artwork by Jake Woodruff and a bit of tweaking by yours truly. Everything has been re-imagined in Hi-Res detail.
* Retina Text - Fixed again what has been broken for several iOS revisions, all text is now silky smooth.
* Play Your Own Music - Finally, seamless automatic detection means you can explore dungeons without interrupting your jam (or streaming, or podcast, or audiobook!). Rogue Touch also respects your mute switch.
* Gameplay Improvements - In addition to the classic "Search" for secret doors, you can simply walk into / push on walls where you believe the door is hidden. If you're correct it will be revealed automatically! Secret Doors and Traps may have small but noticeable visual differences now to help clue you in ;)
* Gameplay Improvements Part II - Interesting tweaks for extra damage and/or elemental immunities when weilding special weapons like ice, fire, electric, and blessed.
* Dungeon Improvements - Subtle tweaks to dungeon generator for room sizing, treasure placement, and more. Secret doors should nearly always lead somewhere interesting now, rather than a potential dead end.
* Pinch Zoom Improvements - Now you can enhance your view by zooming anywhere from 25% to 200% size to appreciate the detailed graphics close-up and personal.
* Settings Improvements - Finally, it's super easy access to RT settings, just touch the gear icon found in the upper left corner on the Title Screen.
* BUGFIXES - Lots of little annoying bugs fixed to provide a better dungeon exploring experience! Fixes for various crash conditions, stair placement bugs, and game-lockup at item use during the last turn before death are included.
If you enjoy playing this newly enhanced version of Rogue Touch, please write a review and let everyone know!

2010-07-08
IMPORTANT:
Please do not upgrade to version 1.51 at this time, a hotfix for game saving bugs has been submitted to Apple today (July 8th). When version 1.52 is ready for download, it will contain all of these changes plus the save game fix.
My apologies for the inconvenience :)
---------
* iOS 4 speed improvements (any device will play faster now!)
* Nymphs no longer steal the *last* item of your pack, but a truly random magic item from you
* Venus Flytraps now prevent you from going down stairs if held in their vines
* Scroll of Safe Passage fixed- it would actually *hide* previously found traps without disarming them. Not anymore!
* Tweaks to search messages (scrawlings and gold in cracks will be less frequent)
* Slimes will no longer split when hit with a War Hammer :)
* Knockback Atttacks! You have a chance to push back a monster with each successful blow you strike! The chance grows with increased strength and higher experience levels. Monsters that get pushed into a wall or another monster take additional damage!

1.3
2009-03-25
*******************************
PLEASE READ BEFORE UPDATING :)
*******************************
Any game in progress and your old Hall of Fame info will be removed to make way for the amazing changes listed below. We apologize for the inconvenience :)
Due to a previously rejected binary we've stepped up the delivery of new features... This is a combo update containing version 1.3 and 1.4 changes!
Version 1.3 contains many new features!
* Hall of Fame: The new and improved HOF now stores detailed data on your games played including number of moves made in the game, number of kills, and amount of gold collected! Compare against your friends... version 1.4 will allow score uploading to internet leaderboads!
* Hallway Path-Finding: Now when playing fast-mode, double tap will cause your character to run and follow all twists and turns in a hallway until reaching an intersection or the next room!
* D-Pad Control: Option to play using classic touch mode, or a new D-Pad at the bottom of the screen! The new D-Pad can be used like the "touch" control, including double taps for fast-mode run and hallway following, or you can keep your thumb/finger down and slide it around. Default is classic touch, go to settings app to enable D-Pad control if desired.
* 8 new secret characters!
* New weapon: Battle Axe
* New potion: Potion of Blessing
* New ring: Ring of Kings
* New Staff/Wand: Staff of Chaos
* Increased challenge when ascending with the Amulet of Yendor :)
* Tweaks: Turned off auto-correction on name entry, added "X" in center to denote touch point for cancelling throw/shoot/zap, adjusted power of secret characters and equipment a bit
* Bug-Fixes: a handful of small bugs reported were fixed (Hulk aggravation, asleep and frozen at the same time, quitting and starting a new game after retrieving the Amulet, weapon stacking and losing enchantments)
* Version number on title screen and change log in info!
Version 1.4 contains the following:
* Online Leaderboards- Your local Hall of Fame data is sent to our server to compete with others around the world for top rank in a number of categories! No personal information is transmitted, just character names and statistics. If you do not have a network connection when completing a game it will automatically submit new scores at a later date, whenever you view your Hall of Fame! Visit www.ChronoSoft.com to view the leaderboards.
* 2 more secret characters!
* New armor: Spartan Cuirass
* New Staff/Wand: Invisibility
* Tweaks: Fast-play defaults to ON now, much more playable that way. Scaling for secret characters based on their capabilities, makes fights more interesting :)
* Bug-Fixes: another handful of small bugs reported were fixed (Nymphs stealing the amulet, vorpalized weapon crashing the inventory screen, fix for game sometimes ignoring settings and defaults)

Webermeyer,
I’ve been zapped with the Wand of Enchantment
I’ve recently discovered/re-discovered this game. I originally played hack on Unix platforms about 30 years ago, and this is very similar. A couple of years ago I found poor adaptations for iOS , but I find this adaptation to be excellent. I particularly like it when I get a good game going and am “lost” in it for hours. Well done!
A couple of comments for the developers:
This version is very “dark”. I realize this makes it harder, and there are things like light wands, but it detracts from the enjoyment.
I have not encountered shops yet: are they in this version? Shops were a lot of fun. There was usually a shop in the first few levels.
“Searching” is clunky, or maybe I just haven’t figured it out. Similar to darkness, it detracts. Dead end passages detract, too - what’s the point?
The occasional Scroll of Identify that identifies all items of a certain type, or x number of items, would be nice.
There should be a way to control where you teleport to? Maybe there is, and I haven’t discovered it yet.
There should be a way to go up stairs when you fall through a pit. Otherwise you don’t have the food, hit points, items, etc. you need to survive at a lower level.
Overall, really well done, and thanks!

Classic old-school RPG'ing at it best.
I'm one of those old-timers who actually played the original game and its descendents like Ragarnok during the 1980s. This version really brought back memories of those dungeon crawls. This is a very challenging game not for the easily frustrated ;-) but I always put aside one of the other "eye candy" games to go another round with this fantastic adaptation of a classic. The input from the developer is simply the icing on the cake, as they are constantly looking to improve the product and ask for input on the forums.
EDIT: Eight years later this game has never left my devices. Thought it would die in the upcoming 64 bit move but so happy to see that it received an update! Can't wait to see the new stuff added. Sometimes the oldies are still the best :)

Noxx42,
Really Addictive
This app is absolutey the only one I use everyday. I used to play the Epyx Rouge on my old Tandy PC and missed it for several years, till my old friend showed me this on his I-pod, so it ws the first app I bought when I got one. The first time I played and read that I hear the sound of many shuffling feet in the distance I knew they had this version right.
Update 2017- Thanks so much for the update, I was thinking I would not be able to update my phone this fall because I would lose this game that I play very often still. I was so delighted and surprised by the gorgeous update. Thanks again

Legit H guide fyuvv,
Great version of Rouge
This is probably one of my favorite games. Grew up playing the old Mac version of Rogue and RogueTouch is the best modern version I’ve found. No bugs to speak of, no adds, great gameplay, and a support website with all the info you would ever need. Also lots of fun extras like secret characters and new weapons. Has leaderboards but I find they don’t always update. No biggy though. If you liked playing the old Macintosh version of rogue you’re going to love this.
Arachne Weaver,
Retro and wonderful
I spent far too much time playing Rogue in college and graduate school, and was thrilled to find this iPhone version. Although this version replaces the glowing green ASCII-character “art” with modern graphics, it staunchly maintains the character of the original game. End-of-the-Boom Boomers like me should welcome this blast from the past, as will presumably younger fans of _Ready Player One_. Well worth the $3, and I hope the developer is encouraged to continue his work.
Scandalarian,
Love it!
I picked this up a week ago, and love it! Not only have I not won, but I haven’t even come close. But my defeats have been glorious.
If I could add one feature, it would be the ability to go back up a floor. I usually die because I clear a level and am forced lower and lower before I’ve had time to really armor myself up. Being able to ascend dungeon levels would let me spend some more time getting stronger before heading into more danger.

Nearly Perfect
This is the only real roguelike on the app store. That said, the new update has crazily cranked up the number of aquators you encounter. After as you reach floor 8, it's aquators for days. Multiple aquators on every floor. The end result is that, unless you're lucky enough to find an elfin armor or a protect armor scroll, the only armor worth holding on to is leather, because anything else is guaranteed to be almost instantly destroyed.

My biggest gripe is that you have faithfully reproduced the most annoying feature of the original game. Many games just don't have enough food and there is no way of finding any in an emergency. It's really irritating to have a great game going and then starve to death.

Great Game
A really excellent implementation of the classic game Rogue that launched the Rougelike genre. It's basically the original game with a few modern conveniences added, and works great as a mobile game. This update refreshes the graphics and patches a few bugs and adds a few new nice features. This is my most played iPhone game, definitely worth your $$

I loved Rogue when it was an ASCII game on a single-color monitor. This update preserves the very best of original Rogue with appropriately cool and simple graphics, more sophistication to items, monsters, environment, and strategy. Best of both worlds! Thank you for creating Rogue Touch! This is exactly the game I wanted for my phone!
