Well, there's POWDER which I think was designed for the portable nintendo thingy originally; it's pretty good (haven't played it much though).
Also there is DOOM RL, pretty fun, lots of tactical features but pretty lightweight overall.
There's Rogue Survivor, in which you play someone in a modern city who tries to stay alive during a zombie invasion; it's perhaps still in the early stages but worth having a look at.
There have been lots of smaller roguelikes in recent years due to people coding them for the 7-day roguelike challenge; some (such as DOOMRL)
Also there is the upcoming Dungeons of Dredmore, an indie roguelike that has graphics and a point n click interface; it's more complex than the above two by far, but perhaps a bit easier to use and get into than the most prominent roguelikes. There's already a thread about it here:
