I feel like this is one of the best roguelikes that I have played. I am constantly playing Pixel Dungeon on my phone, and I feel like this game can definitely replace my addiction. Warrior seemed easy as an introduction and I look forward to playing all the other characters and dungeon branches. 5/5!
Reviews for "Rogue Fable II"

Thanks for the review, yes the warrior should be the easiest class and most likely candidate for a first win for new players.
One of the best games on Newgrounds! I just died on level 14 :( so close.

Thanks for review! Glad your enjoying it!
Soooo hard which makes all that more rewarding when you beat it. Greatness in the making.
This is really good. Peak roguelike. It's very easy to get the hang of but very hard to win. It's the good kind of hard, where I can tell that every death is definitely my fault. The pathfinding algorithm is really good-- when you click on a tile and your character automatically walks there, you never get stuck or walk into traps or anything, and it stops auto-walking when an enemy appears. If that algorithm wasn't good, I would hate playing a roguelike controlled primarily by the mouse. I also like that you can click on a tile on the minimap and auto-walk there.
(SPOILERS) Because you're leveling up and learning skills and stuff, it feels like there should be a boss or something at the end, so clicking on the goblet (which is just sitting on the floor) and getting a popup where your only option is to click "DONE" is pretty anticlimactic. It would be cool if there was at least some fireworks or something... since it took me like 100 tries before I ever won...
I really love this game its so fun to play. Also the old school pixel look is just awesome. the random levels that will be diffrent each time you play makes this game great to comeback to because of the fresh feeling you will get all the time. Ceep up your good work and have a great day!
