Angband Variants
UnAngband is in the camp of "closer to Tolkien" as opposed "retheme totally so as not to desecrate Tolkien by mixing with random pulp". And not 10 years dead. :) https://github.com/DGoldDragon28/Unangband

[Steam] SOULCALIBUR VI, Yakuza Kiwami, My Time At Portia
Soulcalibur vi. You should check out sil-q. The dev took inspiration for Tolkien and best part is that its free! https://github.com/sil-quirk/sil-q

Angband variant recs?
The other current one is Sil-Q, which is a further variant of an existing variant called Sil. I don't like it (either version) so I can't comment much, but it seems popular.

Any stealth based roguelikes ( or roguelites ) out there?
Check out Sil-Q, based on Angband and set in LoTR's deep past but completely redone so that spells and skills act together to make vastly less use of throwing fire around and vastly more of hiding, sealing doorways, increasing healing speed, seeing farther and through walls, putting monsters to sleep, and so on. It's surprisingly successful at feeling like Tolkien's accounts of the great accomplishments of Middle-Earth. https://github.com/sil-quirk/sil-q/

Sil-Q (which you should all check out!) YASD. Did this character have a shot at getting a Silmaril?
It does have a tileset as of Sil-Q 1.5, which you can download here. I drew it myself! I’d recommend changing the font to 16x25.fon in the topbar, then turning on the tiles after starting your first game. Have fun!

Does Moria have any advantage over Angband?
I believe Sil started as a fork of Angband, and it's a favourite of mine. You might want to check that out. (I believe currently the most up-to-date version is Sil-Q https://github.com/sil-quirk/sil-q).

Looking for a casual game to replace FreeCell
Sil - A roguelike based on LOTR with a strong emphasis on discovery and tactical combat. I personally recommend Sil-Q over the original version as it comes with a bunch of bug fixes, balancing changes and improvements to the game.
