What’s a roguelike RPG and how does it play? It’s a classic video game style and here are a couple of strategies...

Strategy A) - attack everything in sight head-on. Result: your character will die quickly and often.

Strategy B) - learn about the powers of the items you find. For example, find a cursed “Empty Vial”, throw it at a "Ghost" to capture its soul. Then later drink the vial, become a Ghost and float through walls to escape danger. Or grab a “Levelup Bead”, wave it at a friendly character - he’ll level up and help you fight, or drop it on the ground, let a "Catapult" monster pick it up & toss it at you - you’ll level up and be able to pound monsters into the ground. But ouch! The "Nosferatu" monsters are too powerful!?! (Nosferatu is a type of vampire, Google it), yet they’re undead and undead monsters are vulnerable to medicinal herbs, like that "Wormwood" you just picked up!

In short, roguelike games offer a rich experience for gamers seeking something beyond casual games.

So if you’re looking for an easy RPG with a nice story, “Voyage to Farland” probably isn’t the game for you. But if you like the "Mystery Dungeon" games and want a game that will kick your butt repeatedly (in humorous ways) yet keep you coming back for more, then you'll love “Voyage to Farland”!

Hints: try the training dungeon first, equip a shield as soon as possible, make good use of the herbs/beads/scroll's secret powers (tap INV, then select Explain from the item's sub menu - use the DPAD or swipe up/down in the center of the touchscreen to scroll in menus). Find an empty vial, use it to capture & morph into a monster to really throw down and you'll be hooked.

Save using the on-screen SAVE button, or just hit the HOME button, which saves and skips the intro cutscene at next startup.

Tap MENU for docs. Visit our website below for more hints and an introductory guide to roguelike games. Save your game at any point, but uses hardcore Rogue rules (death=start over no items). Warning: it’s a hard game, but it's fair once you learn a few tricks with items.

36 monster types with devious attacks, over 30 items and 3 NPCs you can recruit to help you fight!

"Mystery Dungeon" style roguelike RPG! Quirky and fun but very challenging. Yes, it's hard. But you're not afraid of a hard video game, right?

Use magic items, morph into monsters, find friends to fight alongside you! Use keen strategy rather than grinding for levels and you'll clear the dungeon!

NEW: on small screen devices you can now select controls with the DPAD at bottom left.

Notes: save your game at any point, but Voyage to Farland uses hardcore Rogue rules (death=start over no items). Think of it as "tough love".

5 themed dungeons, 39 monster types with devious attacks, over 30 items and 4 NPCs you can recruit to help you fight!

Notes:
Despite the cute graphics, Voyage to Farland is one of the harder roguelike games in the Android market/Google Play. It's not a grindfest. Levels don't matter. Cleared dungeons are what matter in this game. You'll be tested from the very first floor. Many players dive in, attack everything, die quickly and get frustrated. This game demands a more clever approach. Until you find a shield you'll have to pick your battles wisely. Voyage has been on the market for over two years and yet only two players have cleared every dungeon (shout-out to Paul and Rodney!). You might be the third if you have patience, perseverance and a will to win! Some gamers want to kill time with Angry Birds or Battleheart. That's fine, but you're not like that. You want a challenge. You want to face the Spirit Witch and defeat her. You want to be the first adventurer to enter "The Path of No Return" and beat the dungeon once and for all. To unlock the secrets of Farland.

RGBbot Live Wallpaper (v. 1.6b)

Peculiar Games опубликовал приложение 2010-06-28
(обновлено 2012-11-03)

NEW! Strange theme mixing 2012 "Year of the Dragon" and my new game "Microchip Monsters" ← please buy it! :)

It's a silly but entertaining little 8-bit Live Wallpaper originally created to go with my first Android game, RGBbot - but it's grown & morphed since then.

Three bots wander around the bottom of the screen, gather powerful plugin devices that drop from the sky, and jump when you tap the screen - guaranteed to cheer you up! I recommend tapping the screen "just so" to make the bots hover in mid-air!

Four themes to choose from:
1) NEW! "Year of the Dragon"/"Microchip Monsters" theme for 2012 (from the Chinese zodiac & my latest Android game)
2) Original RGBbot "space" theme (from the game!)
3) Holiday theme with snowflakes and presents
4) Last year's 兔 "Year of the Rabbit" 兔 theme


Tap MENU/Wallpaper/Live Wallpapers, then select "RGBbot Live Wallpaper".

For HTC phones with Sense UI, you can choose a "curved" floor so that bots walk along the top of the buttons at the bottom of the screen.
