Xploquest

Xploquest is a retro role-playing game with tile-based movement and turn-based combat. You explore freely, finding new places, dungeons and caves, and the game ends when you have explored every floor of the tower. To unlock the floors, you must find 10 keys.

Explore and survive

The game saves only when you are in a city, so exploring before you are ready can lead to a quick death. Fights earn experience and gold, while chests contain gold and may hold something else. You can accept quests, which then appear on the map.

Spend your gold

Managing gold is an important part of Xploquest. You pay for equipment, skills, food, potions and scrolls.

A flexible adventure

You can explore and act as you choose, without a tiresome scenario or long NPC dialogues. The game is suited to both short and long sessions, and you can return after weeks away without needing to remember what you were doing. The description also notes that you can play other role-playing games at the same time.
