Dopamine Rogue Announces PC Release in 2026
Dopamine Rogue is a procedural platformer roguelike with RPG elements that explores the raw and unfiltered reality of the human mind.
In the pursuit of extreme happiness — which may come at the cost of chaos and mental stability — players follow Emma, an 18-year-old girl who leaves the comfort of her mother’s home to move to the city, study, and build a promising future.
Depending on your choices, you may face financial struggles, mental health challenges, toxic relationships, or even be punished for making the wrong decisions.
On the other hand, you might become wealthy, overcome your disorders, meet good people, and even conquer the world — through good or questionable actions.
Each playthrough can begin differently. Neurodivergent traits such as autism, ADHD, or dyslexia introduce unique possibilities and challenges.
The story is entirely shaped by your decisions — and by the situations you fail to handle.
Buy advantage items, furniture, earn money through jobs or favors… or steal.
Develop skills to navigate social life, protect your health, or embrace a rebellious path.
Manage your dopamine levels and try to stay on top — or simply avoid crashing.
Meet people, study, travel, protect your comfort zone, confront your inner demons — or run from them.
Be strong, vulnerable, or balanced. Every choice may be right — depending on what you cannot control.
Rely on chance… or fight against it?
