# Roguelike

A playbook for roguelikes — the turn engine, procedural dungeons, field-of-view, permadeath,
and run economy. This is a **compositional** skill: it orchestrates procedural generation,
tilemaps, save handling, and AI into a run-based game. It does not re-teach noise/RNG or
tilemap APIs; it defines the loop and the systems that make a *run* compelling.

## When to use

- Use when building a **turn-based, grid-based** dungeon crawler where each death ends the
  run and the world is regenerated — a roguelike or "roguelite" (with meta-progression).
- Use when designing procedural dungeons, FOV/fog-of-war, permadeath stakes, or loot tables.

**When *not* to use:** real-time action with roguelike *dressing* → build the action genre
