NetHack/SLASH'EM
ADOM
DoomRL
Another that had the "fantasy life" type of elona but i cant remmber the name, kinda wish there was more like them...
also wonder if XCOM counts...
-Good 'ol Rogue and Nethack
-Adom (even if you haven't touched it anyway, if you have played elona then you've played it in a way)
-IVAN (oh, yes.... I'm a masochist :)
-Tales of Maj'eyal (had a good time with it for awhile. horrendous load time for each area forced me to ragequit though)
-Spelunky (no jetpacks or climbing gloves after stage 5? too bad, please press F10 to die)
-Meritous (part roguelike, part danmaku)
-Castlevania RL (HOLY SHIT BATMAN, IT EXISTS!!!)
-SNES Shiren (best level up music ever)
-Cave Noire (B/W. more like a luck based puzzle game)
-Wizardry series in general (I mean..come on, it autosaves after party wipeouts, forcing you to literally drag your fallen comrade's corpses. Level drainers,1-hit killers and nuke mages literally waiting behind the doors, how un-roguelike is that?)
Heh the Mystery Dungeon types.. forgot about them and good old Wizardry loved it style but could never fully get in to them
Also worth trying is Cardinal Quest 2 (not so much CQ1), which you can play for free on Kongregate. Has a rather simple but very fun gameplay and does away with some flaws commonly seen on some RL (if you pick up an inferior equipment of the same type you have, it's automatically turned in for gold). It's not a single-campaign as common for RL but separated in 3 levels and one bonus "endless" level, which can or can not be of your liking.
Hmmm..
I´m try to learn Dwarf Fortress adventure mode... but it´s no joke.. ;)
Wizardry..hmmm never tried that before. Which one is the best to start with?
If you're ok with console emulation, the SNES version of the Wizardry V is the easiest to get. Better graphics than the PC version, standalone plot and oh, ...emulator save states. Though, if you can't tolerate the fact that your character is going to be invisible for all the time then you'd better off with the fan-translated SNES version of Wizardry VI. Whatever you pick, don't expect any mercy
Also, forgot to mention Powder and Stone Soup. Neat games, if not too simplistic. Still can't grasp the logic behind their naming though :D
