Kepler452b is a futuristic-looking 'roguelike' set in a space station located near the planet Kepler-452b -- a little over 1,800 light years from earth. Your mission is to find the four keys necessary for returning home.
The gameplay in Kepler452b covers all the bases of the genre. All the action takes place by turns, the settings are randomly generated in each round, your character's death is permanent, and the difficulty level is pretty high. This is all in addition to the fact that you have to do everything exclusively using the keyboard.
One very interesting element in Kepler452b is that there are various conditions for victory and several different endings, something that's unique for the genre. If you get the four keys but you don't get all the 'intel,' you'll get the first ending. If you get all the 'intel,' you'll get the second ending. If you manage to escape without the four keys you'll get the third ending. You can only see the fourth ending if you completely clear the last level of the game.
Kepler452b is an excellent, 'roguelike' with a traditional feel. It offers at atmosphere that's relatively uncommon within the genre, with a classic (but very straightforward) control system, and simple yet elegant graphics.
