2024-03-02: The wiki ran out of disk space, so things were not working. This has been resolved by adding another 5GB of quota ;-) Thanks to Tim Lindner for reporting the issues. 2020-05-17: If a page gives you an error about some revision not being found, just EDIT the page and the old page should appear in the editor. If it does, just SAVE that and the page should be restored. OS-9 Al (talk) 12:22, 17 May 2020 (CDT)

Description

An adventure game based on the rules of the "Dungeons & Dragons" RPGs.

The classic version uses ASCII characters instead of graphics, because it was designed to run even in "dumb terminals".

The CoCo port runs on OS-9, and has a 40 col. mode, a 80 col. mode and a graphic mode. This last one uses a special set of characters, and can be selected by typing MAKEGW at the command prompt before running ROGUE.
