Encyclopedia > Steamband

Steamband is a critically acclaimed variant in the Angband series of ASCII based, so-called Roguelike computer games. These are all dungeon-crawl games with an emphasis on replayability; they collectively have a cult following amongst retro-gamers.


Steamband is set in a neo-Victorian "steampunk" universe and draws heavily from the literature and lore of the time. References to said literature can be found throughout the game and in fact, a separate "shop" in the main town has been deemed the "library", serving as a repository for books found in the dungeon. Finding these books is an important mini-game in itself.


Steamband is maintained by Courtney Campbell.
