    There’s one for games where you have a first person perspective with all your party members represented by little boxes and it’s turn based but I can’t remember it.

    First person dungeon crawler.

    though that’s gotten complicated because so many games are using roguelike as a descriptor and all they really have in common is a fail forward, perma-death but you unlock stuff mechanic.

    Those are roguelike-likes.

    There's also SRPGs (Fire Emblem, FF Tactics).

      Damn it, and now I kinda want to fire up an SNES emulator and play Arcana. Or an NES emulator for The Bard's Tale.
