VIII VI VIII

If you really liked 868-HACK but wished it had a bit more blood and sandals, Hoplite (iOS, Android) may be your thing...

    Yep, I gushed about this game on our Mobile Roguelikes episode. It's great to see a new release of it with added replayability (the 7drl version got a little boring after winning). One thing I really love is that you can play it one-handed on a phone - perfect for commuting!

    It's a very nice game & I'm glad to see the improved version out there.

    However I don't see how much commonality it has with 868-HACK, other than the fact they are both somewhat minimalist mobile roguelikes? How is it closer to 868-hack than to, say: zaga33, microgue, ending, dungeonism, etc?

    "minimalist mobile roguelikes" was similar enough for me...
