Dungeon Siege handles these challenges with ease; it fulfills all the standard RPG modes with experience, gold and magic, but alters all of these variables enough to give Dungeon Siege an exceptional edge over other RPGs in the market.

The Fushigi no Dungeon games are also known for having lots of bonus dungeons to explore after beating the main quest, places where special rules are in effect.
The Fushigi no Dungeon games, while quite close to Rogue, fall a little further from the tree to be considered roguelike by some people simply because they have graphics other than ASCII characters.
