Diablo series - MobyGames (original) (raw)
Diablo is a series of fantasy-themed action role-playing games by Blizzard. The games draw inspiration from roguelikes by focusing on extensive dungeon crawling and having randomized environments, enemies, and items. However, unlike true roguelikes, Diablo games have action-oriented combat with simple point-and-click mechanics, and eschew the permanent death feature. The combination of these elements along with its prominent online multiplayer gameplay has had a considerable influence on the video game industry, creating a sub-genre commonly referred to as Diablo variants.
