What is Rogue-like about this?

You're right, it's just a puzzle game. Strange to use the theme of chess and change a queen into a prince too.

Pawnbarian is more chess-inspired than a chess themed, but actually rogue(lite)-like and very good.

  • "Rogue-like" is the most over-used term these days. It now has almost no meaning, compared to what it used to mean.

    • Normally the term fits very well and there are a lot of rogue likes, in this case its just wrong.

      You die and loose everything than you have a meta upgrade loop.
