In the sixteen-year history of Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, there has never been a lead. Of these, fifty have been core developers. Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup has had two hundred and fifty three contributors. Once you get good at remembering commands and hotkeys in DCSS you can play extremely quickly which I think enhances the enjoyment quite a bit.Brogue was created by one person. The main benefit is that they save you huge amounts of time and effort trying to remember stuff or millions of keypresses trying to go from your stash in the lair all the way down to Zot 5. These aren't all the amazing commands but it gives you an idea. Truly a lifesaver when playing the same character over multiple hours and multiple days. Ever wonder if you missed a stave somewhere? What magic cloaks have you found? I am desperate for any type of branded axe and I swear one dropped somewhere.Where were there shops (and what did they sell)? Have I seen a Kiku altar yet? All these questions and more can be answered with a simple use of this amazing command. The greatest command though (after o and tab) in my opinion is Find (ctrl + f).

You can also fast travel to any dungeon level or branch (ctrl + g). You can view the level map, or previous dungeon level maps, mark exclusions on them so your auto explore doesn't get you killed later if you find something dangerous. You have the fairly common for roguelikes auto-explore (o), and also an auto melee combat (tab) which speed up game play by a lot. So many things are in the game just to make life easier for the player and eliminate repetitive tasks or memorization. It really makes you realize how much work the devs have put into the game over time to really optimize the experience and you can see that they also must be players too. Something nobody else has mentioned that I feel really enhances the enjoyment of the game for me is the amount of amazingly useful quality of life commands and features they have in DCSS. There's no case where you have to resort to a spoiler file just to figure out what to do next.Īs roguelikes go, DCSS follows a lot of modern game design conventions, intended for people who don't want to puzzle their way through obtuse and weirdly-exploitable game mechanics. The "plot" mechanics are all very obvious. The game mechanics are, in general, either intuitive or unnecessary to minmax. No matter how good you are, there's something to challenge you.Īnd finally, it's not necessary to use spoilers. There are "easy" class combinations (still expect many attempts before your first win) and difficult class combinations.

A basic three-run win is pretty easy a full fifteen-rune win is brutal a fifteen-rune win with a ziggurat run is extremely tough add a few more ziggurat runs in and you're reaching near-unheard-of levels. Out of hundreds of games I think I've only played one that I genuinely believe was unwinnable. You will lose, but you'll usually lose due to your own mistakes, not due to the RNG saying "lol you lose now". There's no "guaranteed win" combination, though there are certainly difficult combinations, and many of the combos play fundamentally differently from the others. There are multiple classes and races, all of which are generally balanced.
