What is Streets of Rogue?
A roguelite set in a functioning city rather than a dungeon. The official description combines fast-paced top-down roguelites such as Binding of Isaac and Nuclear Throne with the open-ended, experimental, emergent gameplay of Deus Ex. The city is procedurally generated, with complex AI driving residents through their daily lives. You only need to complete your mission objectives; the approach is entirely up to you. Fight head-on, sneak in, use bribes, or stir up residents. This design, with multiple ways to solve problems, has defined its reception. The source article recorded over 23,000 Steam reviews and an Overwhelmingly Positive rating. Japanese is not officially supported.

「The setting is a city rather than a dungeon. You decide how to achieve your goals」 — Based on the official Steam store description and review record
1. Set in a functioning city
The setting is a procedurally generated city rather than a dungeon. Its residents have complex AI and go about their daily lives.
2. Choose how to complete objectives
As the official description explains, players can complete mission objectives however they see fit, through combat, stealth, negotiation, inciting others, or other means.
3. Emergent gameplay in the spirit of Deus Ex
The official description itself draws on Deus Ex. Combine elements around you to find an opening instead of following a prepared answer.
4. Characters change how you play
Professions and species have very different options. Even the same mission can feel like a different game.
5. Japanese is not officially supported
The interface and text are in English. You will need to read dialogue and explanations at times, so check before purchasing.
