Random Adventure Roguelike ready for the best MUD RPG on Android?

Random Adventure Roguelike will follow the feet to Pixel Dungeon, but with the great difference that we don't have any graphics since all the RPG that contains this rogue like is text-based. A return to the classics where what we will have is a good repertoire of monsters, equipment and skills.

From the creator's own website, he indicates how with Random Adventure Roguelike it is an easy game to play without any graphics, being an old-school with a modern twist. Being a rogue type we can die on rare occasions, this part being one of those that brings all the fun, since the interesting thing will be to be able to handle all our skills and equipment to go into an adventure that will be collected by text. Forget the graphics here, by the way, the developer is Spanish.

A little gem

Like Pixel Dungeon, Random Adventure Roguelike is one of those titles that appears from time to time and that one bumps into it almost unintentionally but willingly. For lovers of the old school role They are in luck since we are facing one of those titles that end up hooking every day and how important is the content that it has in itself, forgetting about the graphics for this very reason. By not having any visual aspect, everything remains in the different important elements in a role-playing game such as different monsters, treasures, armor, weapons, spells, loot to find or create our own weapons and potions with crafts.

If you are a user who likes an RPG but needs graphics to enjoy, better move on to something else since Random Adventure Roguelike has nothing to do with this. It is a MUD type game.

What is a MUD-like game?

MUDs are text games, they do not have graphics and the way in which it is discovered where the hero or character is or what enemies he faces are thanks to written descriptions. The player's actions must also be sent to the computer through written orders, although in the game in which we are called in this post, we can save ourselves from typing by using the different buttons to move, equip or attack among others.

The MUDs gave rise to what we know today as MMORPGS (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) among which you can find World of Warcraft, Everquest or one of the last, Archeage. The main characteristic of this type of MUD game is that by having only text, they can focus more on the content itself to have a large repertoire of all kinds of weapons, spells, monsters, etc.

Playing Random Adventure Roguelike for the first time

At the time that let's start Random Adventure Roguelike we will be asked to give our character a name. Then we will go to the attributes, having to attack, defense and speed to add 10 points that we will have to give the main characteristics to our hero. Here we can play a bit to give, for example, 10 more points to attack knowing that the moment you meet an enemy, your damage will be enormous but your defense will be low. Nothing happens for testing, right?

First Steps

We start the game and we are warned that we have reached a town. The time will be indicated, a small map displayed by 5 × 5 pads and in the center we are represented by an @. We can also know that we have a shop, a bar, a crafting shop, an inn, the trunk, and a skill master. Just below these indications we will have the possibilities that we have as actions, either those mentioned, and that we can choose any to get into, for example, the store.

In the store we will have all items at our disposal to buy from what are potions or equipment itself. We can buy, sell and leave the store with «Back». Back on the main screen we can perform certain actions and see the skills, first of all being "craft". Next to «Actions» and «Skills» we have the 4 options to move around the map. At the top you have different options to go to the main screen, character profile with all its information, inventory, equipment, skills, missions and map. Life, money, level and the hunger bar, we have it right at the top, and these are our vital signs that we must monitor at all times.

Entering the adventure

The moment we start a movement, we will be presented with what we find, from what It can be the meteorological change or even a plant which we can collect with «Pickup». We continue going south, and finally we find an enemy, we choose "Combat" and we will have before us the life of the monster plus a series of actions such as: attack, rings, defend, potions and go out by legs. Here our ability will enter our ability to choose the action necessary to eliminate the enemy.

When we kill a monster we will receive the loot due and we can continue the journey. As we kill different monsters we will increase the level by adding points to the 3 base statistics of our character. Now it remains for you to test your skills yourself in a game of this type and enter the adventure that this developer has.
