Dungeon Crawl is an excellent Rogue clone. You can be all kinds of regular human and also monster classes-- minotaurs, centaurs, kobolds, it's rad.

I play it in-browser here via DOSBox (and it's also downloadable here too): https://dosgames.com/game/dungeon-crawl

Dungeon Crawl's official site is here, where you can also download it and read more about it: http://www.dungeoncrawl.org/

faylen,

@jake4480 huh, should see how accessible that is.

@faylen I'm always curious now but never sure how well games deal with that. Have you come across many that are?

faylen,

@jake4480 I haven't looked at a lot of mainstream games, but a number of things are either by design or just due to how they are made. Then there are ones like hearthstone and stardew valley, where people have intentionally made mods to make them playable. I'm guessing this particular one will work fine seeing as it's a dos game, but we'll see. I'll likely play with it after work. Some blind gamers will go as far as using OCR to play a game. I'm not that dedicated. haha!

@faylen oh wow - yeah, this site has a LOT of DOS games, will be interesting to see how accessible it is. Let me know what you find!

faylen,

@jake4480 Well, either it's flat out not accessible or it won't run in a command prompt in windows terminal. Not sure which, but when I run the .exe file it comes up with what appears to the screen reader as a completely blank screen.

@faylen ah that's no good. Yeah I usually run it in the browser

faylen,

@jake4480 I'll try in the browser after work, but the docs make it sound pretty map heavy which isn't a very good sign for accessibility. But you never know!

faylen,

@jake4480 Yep, definitely not accessible. Literally all I got in the browser was, "graphic." Not even any input fields. Ah well, it was worth a try. Sounds like a fun game to fiddle with.

@faylen yuck! Wow, that is weak. Now I'm curious about other similar sites.

faylen,

@jake4480 I've had good luck with some of the incremental browser games. I suspect there's something about the dos immulation they're doing that makes it not work
