If you've ever wished Pokemon had the "one more run" energy of roguelites - where mistakes cost you time, but they also teach you and push you forward-then you'll probably click with
Pokerogue and
Pokerogue Dex fast. This fan-made game takes the beloved Pokemon core loop (catch, train, battle, team-build) and wraps it in a play, die, grow, repeat system.
And because it's browser-based with ni installation and no account required, it's the kind of game you can start between chores, then suddenly realize it's 2 a.m. and you're planning your next run like a speedrunner.
