Chasm Lords is a ASCII tile-based Roguelike role-playing game (RPG) running in modern web browsers.

The core gameplay and content is heavily influenced by Moria, with the main exception being that it is real-time multiplayer and not turn-based. It also draws influence from MUDs, in particular the Wheel of Time MUD, and other video games in related genres such as Diablo and Dark Age of Camelot.

Key features

  • Procedurally generated dungeons (similar to other roguelikes)
  • Large, one-time procedurally generated outside world
  • World is player modifiable (using typical roguelike skills such as tunneling)
  • Three factions for players: player-killing and faction vs faction is encouraged
  • Five character classes (warrior, mage, priest, rogue, paladin)

Status

The game is currently in beta: most of the game is playable, but it is under heavy development so non-core gameplay and content is still changing regularly.

The expected first stable release is in Q1 2018.
