Always somebody with the lame "dynamic language""get with the times" argument. Maybe I'd at least grant you the "I know what it means" point if any of the games gog tags as roguelike had anything in common other than being video games sold on gog. This is why I usually don't bother posting on "roguelike" threads any more to correct the usage of the term (I guess I was in a weird mood this morning to make this exception). This battle was fought (and lost) on a video game platform I did not even participate in (mobile games wanting to sell their random crap by associating themselves with then-popular roguelikes) before I even became aware of it. Maybe I wouldn't be so adamant about it if it weren't that I actually liked roguelikes and that the term was stolen by marketing people who didn't even know what it meant, and is now defended by people who should (and in many cases, probably do) know better.

Like I said, this problem has little to do with the genre names and more with the random tags on GOG in particular. I'm sure the same could be said for any genre on GOG. I have a good idea what the tags should mean but not why GOG put them on random games that don't fit this definition. ;P

Definitely. :)

Wasn't there actually some kids show, where such an old phone was part of?
Teletubbies, maybe? Blue's Clues?

It's too long ago, since my son was so young, so I don't really remember.

Edit: it was the Teletubbies...just not a phone. XD
