About this game

You are tasked with slaying the Balrog deep within the Mines of Moria. A translation of Robert Alan Koeneke's (1957-2022) Moria into a touchscreen first experience.

Six classes and up to eight races create a unique play experience in your battle with randomized dungeon depths. Start your game in town with rags or riches based on a custom character backstory. Warrior class is recommended for players who are new to the game.

Koeneke paints a world of entropy where even artifacts of incredible power may fall apart. Learn the conditions of survival and die at the hands of merciless foes. This game wasn't made to be won, for the Balrog is a foe beyond any of you.

Progress you character with experience, D&D style attribute gains (strength, intelligence, wisdom, constitution, and charisma). Gain spells, armors, weapons, wands, staves, potions, scrolls, legendary artifacts, and mining tools.

Your character is persistently saved on each level transition. Large dungeon levels are randomly generated and do not persist. You may return to town to renew your character and barter for goods. The town is randomly generated during character creation, and shopkeepers feature unique personalities and bias.

I played the original version of Moria back on my 1992 Macintosh PC and loved it. I was super excited to try it on Android. Controls work well, but I had to look up the guide on how everything works. I am playing a mage in my first playthrough, and it's been a good challenge. A few critiques would be: Replicating monsters are a bit overboard. I think replication mechanics are a bit too punishing Inventory space increase would be welcome Add shutting doors without having to jam them?
