Anything with random maps, though traditionally with a very ascii look.
Being turn based or represented by an at-symbol helps too. Not required though. Definitely it hinges on random maps.

Randomness
Replayability
Choice
Turn-based
Simple graphics or just characters
It's completely okay to break any of these things, as long as the game feels
like rogue
.

A roguelike is a roguelike. Something like rogue. And the
more features
of rogue and roguelike it has, the more roguelike it is.

Is a genre of computer role playing game, based on fantasy of player. If someone dont have imagination in his/her mind, the roguelike game, specially in ascii graphic, become a non-sense and illogic alphanumeric grapfic mass.
Sorry for my "engrish"
