Tales of Maj'Eyal is an open-sourceroguelikevideo game released for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux in 2012. Tales of Maj'Eyal is available as donation-supported[1]freeware (donationware) from the developers.[2] Donations grant some exclusive online features (Freemium model). The game may also be purchased through the digital distribution outlets Steam[2][3] or GOG.[4] The game's TE4 game enginesource code is under a GNU GPLv3license,[5] the game's assets are licensed for use 'with the Tales of Maj'Eyal game only.'[6]
Gameplay[edit]
Tales of Maj'Eyal is a dungeon crawl featuring a customizable graphical interface that integrates classic roguelike keyboard commands with a mouse-driven interface.[7] In a departure from many older roguelike games, Tales of Maj'Eyal has full-color graphics, can be played almost exclusively with the mouse, and despite permadeath the player can earn extra lives through various ways and leveling up.[8]
Tales of Maj'Eyal emphasizes tactical turn-based combat and flexible player-controlled character development. Gameplay depends heavily on the player's decisions and ability to develop and execute strategy. Play begins with the player selecting one of nine races and one of 25 classes (expandable with addons). Not all character choices are available at first; some must be unlocked through in-game progress,[9] or through monetary donation or purchase.[3]
The player must explore Eyal, a lore-filled world containing numerous dungeons and adversaries. The plot is non-linear, and success depends as much on character planning and storyline choices as it does on the player's skill in defeating enemies in combat.
Online support[edit]
Players may register with an optional online game server, which allows them to view their characters, achievements and high scores.[9] It also collates game statistics including the top killers of players, most common race/class choices, and number of wins. In addition, the game server offers an online chat system, letting players talk to each other.[7][8]
Development[edit]
Tales of Maj'Eyal was developed by Nicolas Casalini ('DarkGod'), with graphics by Assen Kanev ('Rexorcorum') and Raymond Gaustadnes ('Shockbolt'). It is based upon Casalini's earlier game Tales of Middle Earth,[10] which in turn is based upon his own PernAngband variant,[11] which was itself based on Zangband[12], which was in turn based on Angband.[13] Development of ToME 4 started in 2009, and the first formal release occurred in 2012.[14]
The T-Engine game engine is written in C, and offers a development framework for grid-based game modules written in Lua. Sims 4 for mac os x. It supports many OpenGL features such as particle effects and shaders. The T-Engine has been used to create games for the annual Seven Day Roguelike Challenge in 2011[15] and 2012.[16]
On 27 October 2014, the expansionAshes of Urh'Rok was released.[17] The expansion Embers of Rage was released on 23 February 2016.[18] The expansion Forbidden Cults was released on 16 May 2018.[19]
Modifications may also be made to the Tales of Maj'Eyal game module through an addon system, including graphics, interface, content and gameplay balance alterations and additions.
Reception[edit]
Tales of Maj'Eyal has been awarded 'ASCII Dreams Roguelike of the Year' for 2010,[20] 2011,[21] and 2012[22] with over 5000 roguelike players voting in 2012.[22] It has also been accepted into Valve's Steam store[23][24] as well as on the DRM-free outlet gog.com.[4]Steamspy reported in 2016 over 150,000 Steam game owners and around 2,000 active players over the last two weeks.[25]
Reviews of Tales of Maj'Eyal have been largely positive[7][9][26][27] with praise being given for its accessibility, graphics, user interface, backstory[28] and varied gameplay. US Gamer calls it 'one of the very best roguelikes out there'.[2][29]

Many in Maj'Eyal have heard of 'demons', sadistic creatures who appear seemingly from nowhere, leaving a trail of suffering and destruction whereever they go. Their Fearscape floats far above the skies, watching and waiting, but not idly; their agents scout the land, their legions build up their forces, and their scholars develop new spells and strategies. As the barrier between our worlds begins to crack under their scrutiny, helpless Eyalites have begun to disappear, whisked up to serve as their slaves and playthings. They imbue these victims with magical powers to better survive the ensuing stresses - can you use your new-found abilities to escape the legions of Mal'Rok?
Features:
- Start with a new class, the Doombringer! These avatars of demonic destruction charge into battle with massive two-handed weapons, cutting swaths of firey devastation through hordes of opponents. Armed with flame magic and demonic strength, they delight in fighting against overwhelming odds, softening up the crowd with waves of fire, then feeding on the flames and suffering of their surroundings to stay alive while quickly reducing any group to a pile of ash and gore.
- Unlock a new class, the Demonologist, with an all-new item enhancement mechanic! Bearing a shield and the magic of the Spellblaze itself, these melee-fighting casters can grow demonic seeds from their fallen enemies. Imbue these seeds onto your items to gain a wide array of new talents and passive benefits, and summon the demons within them to fight on your side! Ever looked at a gigantic demon-cursed minotaur and wished it was on your side for once? Well, now you CAN summon one to pound your foes into paste while you cast devastating spells from afar, or call forth a squad of Fire Imps to pelt your enemies to death while they exhaust themselves on your impenetrable defenses! Demons have persistent health, making them a little more precious than disposable necromancer skeletons or summoner beasts, but can be revived from death nonetheless.
- Two new zones, with all-new art, foes, and bosses! You've seen the plains of the Fearscape before, now see the lairs and headquarters of the demons themselves!
- Over 10,000 words of written lore to find! The demons were once an enlightened, peaceful race, hailing from a distant planet known as Mal'Rok; learn what drove them to plot Eyal's eternal torture! Discover monuments to each of the demonic species and noteworthy individuals, showing the place of honor each has among them! Get a glimpse into the culture and daily lives of these sadistic invaders and their brainwashed thralls!
- Unlock a new race, Doomelves: Shalore who've taken to the demonic alterations especially well, corrupting their typical abilities into a darker form. Blink away to safety, transform into a shadowy dúathedlen to hide in the shadows or prey on your foes with blasts of darkness, use your new resilience to soak up status effects and critical hits, and assault your enemies' minds to leave them unsteady in combat!
- Between the aforementioned classes and Doomelves, a whopping 75 new talents!
- Unlock two new cosmetic options! You know you've always wanted demon-horns.
- Two new events, appearing anywhere in Eyal!
- 20 new artifacts, with unique and interesting effects. Collect the Obsidian Treasures to amass more and more power! Slip your hands into the Will of Ul'Gruth and watch your sweeping blows smash down walls! Wear a giant hideous hell-mouth as a fashionable belt!
- 7 new achievements! Conquer the worst Urh'Rok's forces can throw at you, and hang their metaphorical skulls from your profile page!
