Free to play · In your browser
Play Rogue
Play in your browser with a map, character panels and a skill bar. The client opens in this tab; sign in to choose a character or begin creating one.
A browser and an internet connection are all you need.
Three steps
Getting started
01Create your account
Register with an email address and password, then create a character on the account.
02Build a character
Choose a race, background and appearance. Each race has fixed starting attributes. New characters begin as Explorers and can join a guild after reaching level 10.
03Launch the client
Open the browser client and choose a character. An active account session lets you connect without entering your password again.
Your account
Your characters on one account
One identity
Use your Rogue account to sign in to the website and browser client.
One roster
Characters created on the website are available in the browser client. Their progress is saved by the game.
No second login
An active website session also signs you in to the browser client. If it has expired, sign in again to continue.
Phone or desktop
Other ways to connect
Android App
The same client as the browser, but it stays connected while you switch to other apps. A notification shows it is connected and has a Disconnect button.
Download for AndroidHow to install
- Open this page on your phone and tap Download for Android.
- Your phone may warn that this type of file can be harmful. That is normal for any app that does not come from the Play Store. Tap Download anyway.
- Open the downloaded file. The first time, Android asks you to allow installs from your browser. Tap Settings, turn on Allow from this source, then go back.
- Tap Install. If Play Protect offers to scan the app, let it.
- Open Rogue. Allow notifications, and allow it to run in the background when it asks, so your phone does not close it.
To update, download and install it again over the old one. Your characters live on your account, not on the phone.
iPhone and iPad
Rogue runs from your Home Screen, full screen with its own icon, and your character stays in the game when you switch apps.
How to add it
- Open rogue-mud.com/client in Safari.
- Tap the Share button, then Add to Home Screen.
- Open Rogue from the new icon and sign in.

Try port 4000 if 6666 does not connect; some networks block ports in the 6666-6669 range.
Playing with a Screen Reader
Rogue is all text, and blind players are already testing the game with us. Start here to play in your browser on a page made for screen readers, or connect any MUD client to rogue-mud.com on port 4000 or 6666 and type the name you want. When you make a character, the game asks you to agree to its terms, then whether you play with a screen reader, and from there every step comes in plain words. Triggers, scripts and soundpacks are allowed for blind players.
