This game in the RPG/Roguelike genre is a tale of kings, heroes, and the mysteries of the Hermit Valley. In this game you will find a wealth of peaceful settlements, engaging quests, deep dungeons, powerful enemies, and mighty artifacts.

This game is a mostly classic roguelike with a vast game world.

The game has dozens of dungeons and items, and hundreds of unique enemies. There is a great variety in magic, curses and item enchantments. The player has a wide range of abilities, quests to complete and secrets to discover. You can approach any battle in a dozen ways depending on your skills and equipment: teleport, invisibility, mind corruption, putting curses on enemies, and even fully possessing the enemies’ bodies.

This challenging game will please those who love complex roguelikes with a large arsenal of available actions.


Has to be a contender for the most out of nowhere, most out there naming sense~   8)

 :) This looks really, really good. Definitely going on my "eventually purchase" list along with a few others.
I'm going to assume that the Vanilla Bagel is one type of comestible in the game?

What's really weird is that the developer's two previous game have more conventional names: "Way of Gold and Steel" and "Planet in the Shadows"

I also find it odd that the developer released Vanilla bagel exactly 2 months after the last game. Not sure if these games were made a while back and simply thrown on steam recently or if the developer is super efficient.

I found this in the discussion section on Steam

 shevtsov200 :
"Russians call roguelikes rogaliks which is russian word for bagel.
Russian name of this game is "Vanilla Rogalik", hence the english name."
