RogueCrypt






ROGUE!!

I've been considering doing this for a while. Why it's taken me so long is anyone's guess, but I can imagine most of you already use Peter's excellent hard drive version. Nonetheless, I have created my own preconfigured bootable version of Rogue, which I have named RogueCrypt. Yes, I know the name is awful.

My disk is built on Peter's excellent hack, but I've added a few optional extras to make the Rogue's quest even better. QuickST is used for a much faster display (hopefully), and XControl automatically disables the key clicks. You also have the option to switch between 50/60Hz, which I love to use. I've tested with Atari ST/STe running TOS 1.02(1MB) and TOS 1.62(4MB). Oh, there might be a couple of extra surprises!!

I hope someone finds this disk interesting enough to download. Rogue is such a fantastic game and the perfect reason to take a break from your PC or Xbox. Download my disk and enjoy the dungeons of Rogue.


After creating the disk image, I decided to test my luck and take a stroll through the dungeons...



Rogue is quite possibly one of the best Atari ST games. What say you?



Oh no, I've hit a dead end? Use the search, dummy!



In the dark and set upon by a zombie and a rattlesnake. Life's not fair.



Exploring another corridor, and something from a children's TV show appears!



My adventure ended soon after. I need a cheat (joke!)

  1. Hi Steve. I am acquiring the licensing rights for the Atari ST version of Rogue and because of your experience with STs would like to discuss the implementation with you. Would it be possible to arrange a call please? Best wishes, Damian.
