'''Angband''' is a dungeon-crawling [[roguelike]] computer game derived from Umoria, a version of an earlier roguelike named Moria. It is based on the writings of J. R. R. Tolkien, in which Angband is the fortress of Morgoth. The current version of Angband is available for all major operating systems, including [[Unix]], [[Windows]], and [[Mac OS X]]. Angband gameplay is combat and tactics based, with inventory management as an important aspect of gameplay.


'''Angband''' is a roguelike game based on the Lord of the Rings series.  This roguelike game takes the belief that any character should be able to spend enough time to obtain his or her maximum power through the recreation of its dungeon levels, and as such, it is known for its deep dungeon and large levels.

Angband is based on the game [[Moria]], and shares many concepts introduced in the original game; but has otherwise evolved to fulfill the expectations of the players.
The game revolves around exploring a 100-level dungeon, in which the player seeks to amass enough power and equipment to ultimately defeat Morgoth. A new level is randomly generated each time the player changes levels, which gives Angband great replay value: no two games are the same.
