Roguelike PC Games | Run-Based Titles Ranked by Rating
Roguelike has spread so far that little remains in common beyond 'each run is different'. Some are turn-based, one move at a time; others are real-time dodge-and-shoot; some combine the run with cards or building. The dividing line is what carries over between runs. Pure forms carry nothing, so each run weighs more; forms that let you grow are easier to keep at. With such a large pool, this list ranks lightly reviewed titles by rating so the unknown good ones come forward. Clockwork Cleanup and Aliens After Ava, for example, hold a steady rating with fewer than 500 reviews.
11,534 titles match. 2,641 of them hold a steady rating on 10–500 reviews, 3,729 support Japanese, and 1,205 are free.

Sorted by Wilson score, a rating estimate that accounts for review count. Titles with few reviews are discounted, so '100% on 1 review' never tops the list, while a genuine 90% on 40 reviews rises properly.
