Description of Mines of Moria

You are tasked with slaying the Balrog deep within the Mines of Moria. A translation of Robert Alan Koeneke's (1957-2022) Moria into a touchscreen first experience. Six classes and up to eight races create a unique play experience in your battle with randomized dungeon depths. Start your game in town with rags or riches based on a custom character backstory. Warrior class is recommended for players who are new to the game. Koeneke paints a world of entropy where even artifacts of incredible power may fall apart. Learn the conditions of survival and die at the hands of merciless foes. This game wasn't made to be won, for the Balrog is a foe beyond any of you. Progress you character with experience, D&D style attribute gains (strength, intelligence, wisdom, constitution, and charisma). Gain spells, armors, weapons, wands, staves, potions, scrolls, legendary artifacts, and mining tools. Your character is persistently saved on each level transition. Large dungeon levels are randomly generated and do not persist. You may return to town to renew your character and barter for goods. The town is randomly generated during character creation, and shopkeepers feature unique personalities and bias. # Features of awesomeness * Landscape and Portrait orientation (optional rotation lock) * Character saveslot per class with resume-to-midpoint for seamless task switching * Backup characters to external storage for future restoration or access via PC data cable # Excellence in offline turn-based mobile gaming * on-demand rendering for best-in-class battery life (portable) * finger down executes game actions (responsive) * input may be reverted (accidents happen) * small download; small patches (size matters) * no network access, no ads, no in-game purchases (focus) * smart run for fast dungeon exploration with halt-on-threat (subjective pacing) # Input & Controls Documentation https://rufe.org/moria/game_input.html # Feedback * You have agency in this world.

  • No more.

    I’ve now lost five straight characters to the same glitch that kills the app, freezing it and causing me to have to delete it, reload, and start over building a new character from scratch. No mote. I’m done.

  • A Joy to play

    This was one of the first games I ever played. Was introduced to it on a Vax/Vms system at college in 1986. Never expected to be playing this game again, and certainly not on an Ipad/iphone. What a joy, especially for such a simple interface (imagination powered)! It is as frustrating and heart pounding an adventure as i remember it. Thank you for porting this. Appreciate also the character recovery feature. It’s been a Joy to play.
  • Trash

    Game is trash. Don’t waste a buck on it.
