Description
🎙️ Episode 10 – Going Rogue with Radiance
It’s our 10th episode, and Phil’s got a brand-new mic to celebrate! In this special installment, we dive deep into two legends of the genre: Rogue, the dungeon-crawling godfather of roguelikes, and Pool of Radiance, the Gold Box classic that brought AD&D to home computers.
In the Main Event, we explore what made Rogue so brutally addictive, how its legacy still shapes modern games, and why Pool of Radiance was a landmark moment for CRPG storytelling and tactical combat.
