      And rogue-like, but maybe we’ve all accepted that it’s a bit broader than “just like Rogue” at this point.

        I agree, I was providing a counter to their point rather than lamenting the fact!

        I understand it to mean “heavily randomized”

          It should be:

          • permadeath
          • randomized runs (maps and equipment)
          • usually grid-based movement

          The last seems to be an unpopular definition though.
