Rogue likes usually run on a toaster. What’re people’s favorites?

I have a huge soft spot for Crawl: Stone Soup. Runs in a browser, or probably even lower requirements if you download it. The game’s design goals want to minimize tedium and gotchas, so it’s pretty respectful of your time. Auto-explore and auto-travel are real nice. So is the global search for when you’re like “is there anything in this run with resist poison?”

I’ve played a little nethack, adom, and angband, but I always go back to crawl.

    The nuke is nice if you get an invulnerability drop or just want the level nuked after you’ve left. But mostly it’s a pain in the ass if you want to search for loot but won’t have time. It’s pretty rare though. There’s so many other cursed items to watch out for that I usually die from something like a pair of lava boots that pin you to the ground or armour that can’t be repaired.
