It's too hard to keep up to date on all the individual Roguelike pages out there, so I've included a list of my most highly recommended starting points. These are pages to which I turn when I want to find info about specific Roguelike games or Roguelikes in general. Enjoy!

| General Roguelike Sites | |||
| Roguelike Basin | Petri Kuittinen | 2008-07-14 | This wiki is a great starting point. It seems to be keeping up with the latest releases. |
| Guide to Roguelike Games | Petri Kuittinen | 2001 | Nice clean layout and lots of excellent introductory (though dated) info. Check it out! |
| Home of the Underdogs | Sarinee Achavanuntakul | 2005 | HOTU is a super-popular abandonware mecca, even thought it hasn't been updated in years. I've linked to a Roguelike-dedicated page which provides lots of reviews and downloads. |
| Roguelikes for Palm OS | i0lanthe | 2006 | You can play Rogue, Larn, and Moria on your Palm Pilot! |
| Roguelike Roundup | K. Paul Mallasch | 2004 | One page of quick reviews of all major Roguelikes, with a "favorite Roguelikes" survey. |
| Roguelike Games (sauceforge.net) | Boudewijn Waijers | 2005 | Excellent source of introductory information, spoilers, and downloads for the older (pre-1995) games. It doesn't get updated very frequently. |
| rec.games.roguelike.misc | (newsgroup) | (daily) | One of several discussion groups devoted to Roguelike games. Recommended as long as you don't mind wading through chaotic chatter and sporatic spoilers. |
| Sites for Specific Roguelikes | |||
| The NetHack Index | Dion Nicolaas | 2005 | A ton of NetHack links with verbose descriptions and author names. I liked the format so much I decided to mimic parts of it here! |
| Thangorodrim (Angband) | Robert Ruhlmann | 2005 | Robert has an excellent set of Angband pages, and was also the maintainer of the popular Zangband variant for years. |

The page should still be usable without CSS. It's just ugly.
