About
You are a lone adventurer in a strange, non-Euclidean world. Gather as much treasure as you can before the nasty monsters get you. Explore about 60 different lands, each with its own unique treasures, enemies, and terrain obstacles. Your quest is to find the legendary treasure, the Orbs of Yendor. Collect one of them to win! Or just ignore your quest and collect smaller treasures.
The twist is the unique, unusual geometry of the world: it is one of just few games which takes place on the hyperbolic plane. Witness a grid composed of hexagons and heptagons, straight lines which seem to be parallel, but then they diverge and never cross, triangles whose angles add up to less than 180 degrees, how extremely unlikely is it to reach the same place twice due to practically infinite size of the world (centillions of locations in just 700 steps from the starting point), and how the world seems to be rotated when you do return. All this matters for the gameplay. The game is inspired by the roguetime genre, works of M. C. Escher, and by puzzle games such as Deadly Rooms of Death.
HyperRogue is often updated! Other than the original 2D hyperbolic puzzle roguetime game, HyperRogue includes experimental modes, allowing one to change many aspects of the game for your non-Euclidean experimentation, such as racing mode, real-time "shmup" mode, 3D geometries including Thurston geometries, SteamVR virtual reality. If you want to play HyperRogue as a non-Euclidean first person shooter, it is possible too!

Cool game
Best shape game Shapes
I mostly got this because I like geometry and so a game set in hyperbolic geometry always sounds cool but even outside of the geometry being cool it's actually a good game. It can good to either play sort of mindlessly in a sort of exploratory and relaxing way, or you can get really strategic and and careful. Of course it has the hallmark of any good roguelike in that even after you die it's really enticing to jump back in but the way that progression works in this game feel like it makes it so much easier as you just loose access to which lands are immediately available but half the time you'll very quickly end up somewhere you haven't ever been anyways because of the variety of lands in this game and how quickly they can become available. The intuition you can start to glean about hyperbolic geometry is also pretty cool, sometimes it's not as evident because you're mostly just wandering aimlessly but if you ever try and backtrack that's when you get truly boggled and you start to realize some unique qualities of hyperbolic geometry. My favourite land is the minesweeper one which tracks as hyperbolic minesweeper on it's own is a fun game I would recommend but also having perusing an infinite(I think) minefield with the added goals of getting items scattered within the minefield and eventually fighting off birds that die to create more mines is really fun(If there is some way to play only in this land or any given land someone let me know, there are a lot of settings and I do not know how to use them.). Highly recommend even if you don't know or don't care what hyperbolic geometry is, no need to feel intimidated by it either, it's just a fun game.

одно из лучших что довелось играть в жанре роглайк
when the hyper is rogue
双曲平面上でのローグライク。 まずマップの作りが非直感的すぎるがこれには慣れるしかない。むしろその性質を理解するためのゲームかもしれない。 ゲームプレイはパズル要素が強く、攻撃とマスの移動と待機しか基本のアクションは存在しない。マップには多様なバイオームとそれに則した敵がいて、倒したり逃げたりしながら宝物を集めたり探索を進めるというのが基本の流れになる。 ある条件を達成すると Yendor Challenge というモードが解放されるのだが、これが面白くゲームの理解を深めてくれるのでおすすめ。
