I love rogue-likes and rogue- like-likes and rogue-lights and whatever you want to call them, im not here to quibble over terminology, as long as it has perma death and randomised stuff its good by me, but my problem is i have kinda bad reaction times and most roguestyle games require good reactions or twitch skills( spelunkey, TBoI, Paranautical activity, super house of dead ninjas)
So my question to you is can you recommend any rouges that don't need twitch skills, like FTL and even if you stretch your definitions a little bit XCOM

Edit: there fixed the damn spelling error

Try Dungeons of Dreadmor ;) Turnbased dungeon-crawling procedurally-generated game, with multiple classes, items, skills and hell-lot of fun ;)

I see too many people call them rouge-likes instead of rogue-likes, including yourself, can I ask why? Also, it's a genre I like but haven't played too much of, my main experience with it has been The Binding of Isaac, and I've played some Dungeons of Dredmor.

i only just realized i spelt it wrong, i always mix up placement of the u and e, rouge is the french word for red rogue is the right name derp,
its a fantastic genre especially in the value for money section

+1. This game is pure awesomeness hidden under the surface of minimalistic graphics. Do yourself a favour and try out the demo!

Dungeon Crawl is basically the best of the big roguelikes. DoomRL is the best roguelike adaptation of a fast-paced FPS. Sil is the best roguelike adaptation of that one story in the Silmarillion where someone tries to steal a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown, and also the only (distant) Angband-descendant I've really enjoyed.

All three are actually roguelikes, and so don't involve any twitch at all.

+1 for Dungeon Crawl and its own way to stream your progress :)

Technically, a game isn't considered a rogue-like unless it's turn-based. On Steam, I would try Dungeons of Dredmor, Rogue's Tale, or Hack, Slash, Loot.

Crypt of the Necrodancer is good. It's closed beta now but it's coming to Early Access within a few weeks I believe. Challenging but very fun, although it might not be good for you if you have bad reaction times (I'm posting it anyhow so other people can learn about it).

I don't know if it's any good actually because I haven't played it yet, but it fits the turn-based criteria : The Nightmare Cooperative, out today on Steam.
