suggestions for retro dungeon crawler on droid? Anonymous Wed Mar 25 06:42:00 2015 No.2307660 [Reply] [Original]

I was playing ff6 and the nes version of wizardry on this phone for a while. Anybody have any suggestions for a crawler I can fuck around with for a couple hours a night and not get completely shit gits bored? I like nethack, too.

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 25 10:36:15 2015 No.2307836 I'd like to find some NES/GB/GBA dungeon crawlers but "graph paper required" is kind of a deal breaker for something I want to play on the go

>>	Anonymous Wed Mar 25 10:48:44 2015 No.2307851 Pixel Dungeon is the perfect answer. I initially thought you made this thread to get that as a response specifically.

A first person RPG I do think is underrated is Sword of Hope II on the gameboy. I never really got lost in it either, so you shouldn't really have to do deal with the "graph paper required" problem.

For the GBA, try Mazes of Fate. Avoid the DS version like the plague.

Ugh don't know why I posted a picture of Arcana. I guess it just came to mind first when I thought first person dungeon crawler where you don't need to graph things out because it has an auto map.

Though, that's on SNES.

Here's Sword of Hope II.

>>	Anonymous Thu Mar 26 06:34:16 2015 No.2309659 >>2309657 wait, forgot this was the retro board get dosbox, get bards tale/elder scrolls

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 27 18:04:17 2015 No.2312505 >>2307851 Is there any way to play pixel dungeon without an android phone? Also, are any of the gameboy SMTs 1) dungeon crawlers 2) translated?

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 27 18:08:14 2015 No.2312510 >>2312505 >Is there any way to play pixel dungeon without an android phone? Yes, the game is written in native Java. So Windows, Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, anything with a port of the Java Runtime. http://pixeldungeon.watabou.ru/desktop.html

The writing is better for the fan translation,since they took a lot of libertiesbut got a vastly superior product as a result.
the iphone port has a more faithful translation
it also looks.prettier and fleshes out the story more like the gba version did

Regardless,SMT1 is game worth playing no.matter the version

alternatively,if you wamt something that looks better,consider something like kyuukyaku megami tensei or SMT2

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 27 19:09:44 2015 No.2312642 Nethack and unNethack have an Android port that doesn't suck. You can also play DOS/early Win on one with Dosbox Turbo.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 28 00:54:01 2015 No.2313452 I've been playing Torneko for the SNES. It can fuck you over with RNG sometimes, but it's pretty good in short bursts.

>>	Anonymous Sat Mar 28 03:34:47 2015 No.2313647 Tried pixel dungeon, rad soundtrack but the lack of directional keys and randomly spawning creatures turned me off.
