An open source retro action RPG with some Roguelike elements. Developed by Aaron Bishop and later an open source developer team.The kingdom of Lorule (not that one) is in distress, since the Dracolich abducted King Bishop, and various factions are trying to seize power. You play as some sort of hero, whose backstory and motivation differs by class, on a quest to gather all the Sporks of Yore (yes, you heard that right) so they can enter the lair of the Dracolich, slay him and save the king. Yeah, the plot isn't this game's focus.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Egoboo contains a load of different items and monsters that can interact in many ways, characters that support different playstyles, and there's usually more than one solution (or bypass) to each puzzle. Gameplay is mainly about combat, which is rather simple by design, but by no means easy or Hack and Slash, and dungeon exploration.It's split into individual levels, known as modules, and you "create" a character by completing their starter module, at which point you're free to progress in the main storyline by completing the "palace" modules (another Zelda nod), which are indefinitely replayable, visit a town to shop for equipment, or complete optional sidequests. Character customization is mostly done by picking your equipment (in this game, your choice of weaponry matters a lot), and thus fairly adaptible and open to experimentation.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })More information about the game, including downloads, can be gotten here. You can download it from the package manager on various Linux distros, but it doesn't actually work.

Annoying Arrows: Averted - arrows ignore defense, are fairly powerful (powerful enough to One-Hit Kill low-level characters of a frail class), and deal damage over time on top of it.

Announcer Chatter: There's a (text-only) event ticker that tracks item acquisition, kills, triggered traps, completed objectives and so on (in a fairly whimsical manner).

Adventurer Archaeologist: The unlockable archeologist class is like this; as a reference, its design is incredibly close to the Indiana Jones archetype.
