About this game

An unofficial port of the classic roguelike Dungeon Crawl: Stone Soup for Android. This is the ascii version.
Can you retrieve the Orb of Zot? Probably not!

Ratings and reviews

The most comfortable to play on a phone port of the game so far. One inconvenience I ran into is the unaccessible location of options file on a device with no root, and there seems to be no other way to disable auto resting when autoexploring other than modifying the file. upd: Also have noticed that the app crashes when ctrl+z (^Z) is pressed

I couldn't give Stone Soup any less than 5 stars as it's my favourite rogue of all time, thanks much for this port. Okay, it's not as nice to play as with a keyboard, but mapping keypresses to onscreen buttons makes it playable. Is it just me or has the game been rebalanced? Seems like the main dungeon branches (mines/forest) are much smaller than they used to be.

Where to begin... The learning curve is steep, but suffice to say its worth it for a game you could literally sink hours into and still find new ways to delve the dungeons. Character diversity, and skill sets are great, and the progression system is top notch. Overall a game worth trying at the very least, however if a quick, and simple game is more your taste then take your time elsewhere because Dcss is the long term gem you'll be putting hours into.
