2025-12-29: I have restored the wiki to a backup from the end of November. Starting in September 2025, accesses went form the 800MB-1.2GB range per month to 26GB in September, 42GB in October, and 70GB in November with most accesses originating from China. As soon as I realized what was causing all the access problems in November, I shut it down (it had reached 36GB by then) behind a password/login screen. The database had gotten corrupted, and I tried a restore from just before the spike in access but that didn't work. Thus, end of November. I still have the other daily backups so if there were any important additions in December, let me know and maybe they can be recovered. - Allen H.

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.
