Welcome to the Brogue Community Wiki

Brogue is a Roguelike game by Brian Walker. It is available at sites.google.com/site/broguegame. It is a direct descendant of Rogue, unlike other popular modern roguelikes, and it favors simplicity over complexity, while trying to ensure that the interactions between components will be interesting and varied. It can be played on Mac OS X, Windows, or Linux, and it is possible to play entirely with the keyboard or entirely with the mouse or a combination of the two as the player chooses.

The official Brogue forum is at brogue.createforumhosting.com and there is an unofficial IRC channel at QuakeNet #brogue. Both welcome non-players, new players, and veterans alike.

This wiki is a collaborative guide for Brogue players. Please, add your insight!

Where to start?

If you're new to Brogue, you might try the Beginner's Guide to the Early Depths. If you're slightly more advanced, you might want to see a Walkthrough. If you want to tour the dungeon with slightly less fear of death, you can try Easy Mode. If you're not sure you want to play Brogue, you can go read some Reviews of Brogue.

If you find that enemies catch your scent and never let go, you'll want to know how to get away from them.

If you want to know everything you can about the Dungeons of Doom, read up on Monsters, Items, and Terrain Features.

If you want to play a Weekend Contest, a Midweek Contest or Sunday Seed you'll need to know about Seeding Games.

To play at a higher level, you'll want to know about Stealth, Combat, Exploiting Staircases and Character Builds.

And if you're curious about what's going on under the hood, read about Level Generation and Item Generation and Machine Rooms.
