DIABLO+NETHACK = Triangle Wizard, play while you wait

I found something worth playing while waiting for my key and i wanted to share it with all of you.
If you like roguelikes and diablo (if you don't, why are you even here? :P), you must give it a try, specially if you think gameplay > graphics. BTW, It's a free, low download size, singleplayer game. This game features fast paced realtime combat which is weird for a roguelike.

Old video (sucks)
Newer video (still sucks)
(they suck, but it's better than nothing)

EDIT: Another (multiplayer!) rogue+diablo-like game worth playing is Realm of the Mad God. Maybe we could arrange a "ROFLstomp Train" there :P (a "train" is a group of players massacring everything to lvl up fast)

I used to play ROTMG, and I do suggest it as well. It's great for wasting time, but if you are a rager, don't play it; If you die, you lose your character and all the items. Adds a lot suspense to the game, though, and it's a lot of fun!
ROTMG gets boring fast (there are expections ofc, some players really love it, not me tho, it's awesome to play a few days tho)

Just like most roguelikes, Triangle Wizard has permadeath too (you can disable it).

I'm getting owned pretty hard in TW right now :P. Like getting killed by AoE spells casted by my own summons at level 1. LOL

I'll bump once and let this die, i've been enjoying this game a lot :)
If anyone started or want to play RotMG, maybe we can set up a group.
I don't really see how this is similar to d2
Thanks for pointing me to this game, I've died 3 times in 2 hours and I'm loving it! Hopefully I won't forget Path of Exile because Triangle Wizard is probably going to be my latest obsession for at least a week or so.
haha realm of the mad god pretty cool
22/m/pa looking for friends haha

Reckon I'll have to give it a go...I used to love nethack and rogueclones...thanks for the info!

Actually diablo stole a lot from roguelikes (like NetHack), devs admitted it. So it has more in common than you think.
Basically this is a roguelike with realtime fast paced combat (that's what he took from D2).

I knew someone would love this game, i've found a lot of roguelike players in the PoE IRC chat.
I'm pretty new to TW too, and i'm very impressed so far. I think this project deserves more attention than it has (which is low). I bet this is only because most roguelike players are ASCII purists.
I found this gem exploring the lists of roguelike games grouped by development state in Roguebasin, exactly in its Roguebasin wikipage
