Read full description

Your last day at work is going to take a while. Exit Interview is a turn-based roguelike about climbing a corporate tower to reach the CEO and quit. Every run rearranges the journey through 23 civilizations across five eras. Read the room, manage your supplies and decide when to risk one more floor. OUTSMART THE ROOM Lure enemies into each other's shots, ignite oil, or bait a charging guard into a cracked barrier. Enemies act when you do, and marked danger tiles give you time to plan. CHOOSE YOUR SPECIALTY Each character has two skill branches to choose from after three ordinary enemy defeats. Build around 120 relics, each with distinct pixel artwork. Discover equipment combinations, pin a goal and request missing gear from a merchant for a clearly displayed price. MAKE THE NEXT RUN COUNT Preview your starting kit's effects and class affinity, then plan a new approach after defeat. Meet Mara from Facilities and Ivo from Records: their stories remember your decisions. Death ends a run; your knowledge and permanent unlocks help you try again. COMPLETE YOUR PROBATION Explore five compact floors, try a tactical encounter and defeat the final department head. Finish this shorter assignment with its own ending and separate records, or take on the full tower. Pixel art, office satire and tactical dungeon exploration. A one-time purchase, with no ads, in-app purchases or subscriptions. Play offline; progress is saved on your device. Choose your language in Settings or follow your device.

Direhollow is a faithful mobile remake of Rogue — the 1980 game that started the roguelike. The same Dungeons of Doom. The same A–Z bestiary. The same unforgiving permadeath. Rebuilt for a phone: touch-first, free, and true to the original. We modernize the shell, not the rules. THE REAL GAME, ON A PHONE The same seeded dungeons, the same monsters, the same merciless math — with a 3×3 move pad, pinch-to-zoom, a tap-driven pack, and saves that actually survive a phone call. WHAT YOU'LL FIND DOWN THERE • True permadeath — one life, one seed. The save is deleted on death. No reloading an earlier turn. • The full bestiary — the complete A–Z roster, depth-ordered exactly as the original intended. • Loot & identify — per-run appearances for scrolls, potions, rings, and wands. Learn them, or risk them. • The Amulet of Yendor — descend to claim it, then climb back to the surface alive. Few will. • True ASCII — the authentic 1980 glyph grid. No tiles, no remix. The terminal classic, on a phone. FREE, AND FAIR No pay-to-win. No energy timers. No reloads sold back to you. The whole game is earned — exactly as it was in 1980. ——— "Rogue" is used here only descriptively, to say what kind of game this is. Direhollow is an independent work inspired by the BSD-licensed original; it is not affiliated with or endorsed by any trademark holder.
