MODERATORS
It feels like a list for fans of "run based games" as it were, with Qud being the outlier.
I am strongly biased towards TOME but think any list that doesn't reference Stoneshard at this point is doing a disservice. It is probably the most accessible "lite rogue like" at this point and should be on basically every list
Well, and they also have Rogue itself on there.
Stoneshard seems much more classic Roguelike to me than lite.
I unabashedly consider it a like and categorize it that way in steam. But going by the Berlin checklist, it is more a lite.
But it should be the gold standard for all likes at this point
I think the only items it's violating are being non-modal (which is violated all the time genre defining Roguelikes) and by not being ASCII (ditto, pretty much every genre defining roguelike has a tileset these days).
