Description

Stickman Rogue Online drops a stick figure into an arena and sends waves at it. Enemies get more numerous and more dangerous with each one, and the only thing that keeps pace is what you do with the experience they leave behind.

Upgrades come in three directions: speed, attack and defence. Nothing about the choice is free. Speed keeps you out of trouble and kills nothing; attack clears waves and leaves you standing still to do it; defence buys mistakes at the price of never getting ahead.

Energy boosters appear during a fight rather than between them, which means collecting one is a decision taken while something is chasing you. The route to a booster in the wrong corner has ended more runs than any enemy in the game.

Runs are short and there is no saving, so the whole thing lives on the next attempt. What improves is your sense of which upgrade the coming wave actually needs, and that is exactly what a roguelike is for.
