View source for List of handheld roguelikes

A '''handheld roguelike''' is a [[roguelike]] game for a small electronic device such as a cellphone, a video game system, or a [[wikipedia:PDA|PDA]].

Even a system capable of running Windows or Linux does not guarantee a good roguelike experience. The small screen and limited controls of most handhelds mean that, unless careful work is done in [[UI design]], the resulting game can be unplayable.

Some of these games also work on Windows or Linux, either by themselves or with the help of an [[wikipedia:emulator|emulator]].
