Best Roguelike Games
Die, learn, try again - and somehow it never gets old. In roguelike games every run is different: new maps, new items, new surprises, and one wrong move can send you back to the start. That is exactly what makes them so addictive, and why "just one more run" can easily turn into a whole evening. Below you will find 703 roguelike and roguelite games for PC, with the best rated ones first and the cheapest key prices we could find right now. Read the FAQ

Frequently asked questions about Roguelike Games
What are the best roguelike games on PC right now?
The best rated roguelikes right now are Balatro, Risk of Rain 2, and Dead Cells. The list updates every day, so new releases join as soon as they come out.
What is the difference between a roguelike and a roguelite?
In a classic roguelike, death resets everything and you start from scratch. In a roguelite, you keep something between runs - new weapons, upgrades or story progress - so every run makes you a little stronger. Rogue Legacy 2 and Hades II are roguelites, while FTL: Faster Than Light is closer to the classic style. You will find both kinds in this list.
Which roguelike should I play first?
Hades is the perfect start: great combat, a fun story that moves forward every time you die, and a difficulty that grows with you. Card game fans should try Monster Train, strategy fans Into the Breach, and if you like dark, punishing adventures, Darkest Dungeon is a classic.
Are there roguelikes to play with friends?
Yes - Spelunky 2 lets up to four players explore its caves together, on one screen or online, and Roboquest has online co-op for two. For more games to play together, check out our Co-op Games list.
Are roguelikes hard?
They can be, especially at first - learning from your mistakes is part of the game. Most roguelites get easier as you unlock upgrades, and many games now have extra difficulty settings. If you love a real challenge, see our Difficult Games list. Prefer exploring one big world instead of short runs? Try our Metroidvania Games list.
