Ragnarok
Ragnorak is a ASCII based dungeon exploration RPG in the style of the seminal Rogue (a game from the 80′s). You (the hero, either a warrior, blacksmith, woodsmith, rogue, sage, or a conjurer) must aid the good Norse gods in their battle against the evil Norse gods (Rangnarok is the Norse version of Armageddon).
Of all the “Rogue-like” RPGs, Ragnarok is probably one of the best (Morder: Depths of Dejenol also springs to mind). The sheer bulk of items and equiptment that is available to the player is amazing, add to this the fact that the game world is different every time you start the game and you have almost endless replayability.
Groovy eh?
Yes the graphics are very primitive, but this is more than made up for in depth and gameplay.

This has to be one of the best RPG’s ever made, The game is huge with so many items and monsters and quests that you could play for days without finishing the game. The game is so unpredictable you never know what will happen to you next so you can play over and over without getting bored.

The graphics are terrible but the gameplay is great. I played this game years ago for months and never got fed up. And now it runs under XP. Happy Happy Joy Joy!
