A game I recently started playing is ToME or Tales of Maj'Eyal. It is a roguelike singleplayer game.

It has been around since 2010, but it goes all the way back if we count its predecessors. It is also an open-source game.

As of this post:
* There are already 3 expansions.
* The 4th expansion is set to enter beta testing soon.
* The 5th expansion is already being developed in parallel.

Give it a try, available in Linux, Windows, and OSX. (Also available via Steam.)

Check the official website for screenshots, videos, and more information!

A bit of history based on what I was able to find:
* Originally named: Tales of Middle-Earth: The Fourth Age. Set 122 years after the fall of Sauron.
* In 2010-11-21, the game setting was changed entirely into a new one. See: https://te4.org/news?page=27
* Its predecessor was “Tales of Middle Earth”. See: https://www.t-o-m-e.net

Love the game, have over a hundred hours in it, nice to see a shoutout but why so many hashtags? hard to read the post

[–] youronlyone@c.im 2 points 7 months ago

@vasus It is!

And apologies, hashtags are important in the fediverse. ^_^

Hmm… what I can do next time is to not use inline hashtags, and just have it in a separate line. Thank you for the feedback!

He is on Mastodon, that's how Federation works between Lemmy and Mastodon.

Good god. Could you put anymore pound symbols in that post?

[–] youronlyone@c.im 3 points 7 months ago

@slazer2au Apologies! In any case, updated and moved the inline tags down.

@youronlyone @games @gaming I love it, great game. I just wish you didn't have to unlock the classes through gameplay.
