Stepwise: Gates of Yendor

Stepwise: Gates of Yendor is a traditional roguelike dungeon crawler with retro-inspired graphics, currently in active development, with a projected release date in early 2026.

In this game, each new session takes place in a randomly selected world, with its own setting, layout, collectable items and hidden secrets. One session might see you venturing across a vast fantasy land of elves and goblins, while another takes place in a vast dystopian cityscape, whose dark secrets are hidden miles below.

Tread carefully as you step through the gate - there are many worlds out there, and not all of them are welcoming to the naive or foolish.
