Dragonwake

Dragonwake is an ASCII roguelike set in Valoria, the land once ruled by the old empire of Istaris before the Starfall. Your heirloom, a blackglass star amulet, draws you there just as the primordial dragon begins to stir.

Dragonwake is built to feel like a solo old-school D&D-inspired campaign in roguelike form: race, class, attributes, saves, spells, quests, towns, ruins, and dangerous dungeon crawls. The rules aim for a 1e/2e-era feel, modified for smooth roguelike play.

Embark on a long and detailed quest line across an expansive world map, with towns, quest hubs, caves, tombs, mines, towers, keeps, old ruins, and plenty of replayability. Choose a race and class, then begin your road toward the Sundering Scar. Good luck.
