'No beheading rule.' Provided reasonable play, the player’s character should not be killed or harmed too greatly & permanently in one attack. 'No cyanide rule.' No unidentified item should be immediately fatal upon use given reasonable circumstances, otherwise the player should never try to use-identify. 'Item masquerade rule.' Items should be difficult to identify even for spoiled players, due to similarities between items of the same type. 'Situational ID advantage rule.'

Obvious passion that never leaves the reader feeling left out or belittled. A must-read for.

When unknown, item effects in a category should overlap in such a way that use in some situations would be good to discover, while others simultaneously would be bad. 'Item enchantment rule.' When known, items should as much as possible present interesting decisions.

'Two-sided coin rule.' Given perfect knowledge of identifications and uses, items should never be completely useless. 'Reducing grind rule.' The mere act of spending time should deplete some finite resource, forcing players to keep those resources up, while also limiting the amount of 'grinding' he can do. 'Race you can't win rule.' The game's monster difficulty should increase slightly faster than the advancement of the player, given average stats and default equipment, so as to force him to rely upon items and tactics. I just got into dungeon crawlers in 2009 and 2010, and I've still only beaten the Mysterious Dungeon series and the 2 Nippon Ichi-published PSP games of 2010.

Reading the column made me realize I still don't know how to evaluate their design. Do your favorite dungeon crawlers follow the 'rules' and what are they? Subbed as well. I've mostly been playing more accessible roguelikes, though I think they mostly follow these rules. Desktop Dungeons is my current game.

Just an amazing, yet very simple game. Rogue Touch for iOS is a REALLY solid implementation of classic Rogue. Brutal, but not so feature heavy as to be inaccessible to new players. Could someone recommend an accessible roguelike on a larger scale than these?

I've played some very impressive ones, but I'm short on time and I'd like to play an ambitious one that follows the logic in the OP without arcane controls and/or features to wrestle with. More Powder than Nethack, but set in a rich, open world, I guess. Not counting the Hero Quest boardgame, Castle of the Winds was the game that introduced me to roguelikes. I loved the every-body-goes-at-the-same-time movement system and the way you'd gradually uncover the map. Later I discovered Nethack and since then I've never really bothered with any others - I have played that game more than any other.

Possibly more than every other. I am a pretty hopeless addict. I've played the Japanese games - a little- and I'm not even slightly impressed. They just seem like flat-out, inarguably worse roguelikes with clunky interfaces that you actually pay for. There are some great roguelike-esque JRPGs though, like Dragon Quarter and Lufia 2. The best console Roguelike I've played so far is the original Shiren the Wanderer (remade for the DS a few years ago). I think, in terms of presentation and overall balance, it's almost perfect.

I don't see the game being beaten, either. (What other amazing Roguelike will have a Sugiyama score?) I am enjoying Shiren Wii, but it just doesn't compare to the original, IMO. The Tornenko games are great, of course. Highly recommended. Probably the second most impressive console Roguelike I've played (for my tastes) is Baroque. I have the Wii version. It isn't perfect, but it has a lot of creative ideas and rules.

I also own Izuna 2. It's got to be one of the worst games I own on the DS. Way too easy and plain-jane, IMO. I do really like its boss battles, though.

I am also a big fan of TimeStalkers, but that game will not sit well with most players.
