New lands, and other improvements

HyperRogue is updated again (v5.0)! It includes two extra lands:

The frozen lake of Cocytus is now reachable after collecting 10 Demon Daisies. This land was previously available only for cheaters (and extremely good players), but the new version is better.
The Dry Forest, full of trees and creatures who would do everything to stop you, is now reachable at the same time as R'Lyeh.

Despite adding new lands, it is still sufficient to get treasures in 9 lands to reach Hell. Collecting Hyperstones requires mastering all lands, and also it has been rebalanced, so new 5.0 leaderboards have been created for Hyperstone-related scores. This version also includes numerous minor bugfixes, gameplay and user interface enhancements. It also includes support for multiple languages (Polish is ready, German and Turkish should come soon -- please contact me at zeno@attnam.com if you want to translate HyperRogue to another language). Don't get burned by Fire Fairies, don't drown in Cocytus, and have fun!

You are a lone adventurer in a strange, non-Euclidean world. Gather as much treasure as you can before the nasty monsters get you. Explore several different worlds, each with its own unique treasures, enemies, and terrain obstacles. Your quest is to find the legendary treasure, the Orbs of Yendor. Collect one of them to win! Or just ignore your quest and collect smaller treasures.

The twist is the unique, unusual geometry of the world: it is one of just few games which takes place on the hyperbolic plane. Witness a grid composed of hexagons and heptagons, straight lines which seem to be parallel, but then they diverge and never cross, triangles whose angles add up to less than 180 degrees, how extremely unlikely is it to reach the same place twice, and how the world seems to be rotated when you do return. All this matters for the gameplay. The game is inspired by the roguelike genre (although in a very minimalist way), works of M. C. Escher, and by puzzle games such as Deadly Rooms of Death.

HyperRogue can be played for free from its website. The Steam version adds online achievements, online leaderboards, trading cards, and convenience. Also, as the game is constantly updated, the Steam version includes the newest features, such as new lands with new mechanics, or new game modes -- see Gallery for the current differences.
