Caves of Qud

A turn-based roguelike set in a strange science-fantasy world, where permadeath means a failed run is gone for good. You build a character from a large set of mutations and castes, then explore a mix of handcrafted and procedurally generated places with a heavy simulation layer. Is it your kind of game?
