Role Playing Games

RPGs offer a personalised gaming experience where players can create and customise their own characters. By earning experience points, players can level up their characters and unlock new abilities, equipment, and storylines.

Role-playing games (RPGs) are a cornerstone of gaming, evolving into a diverse genre with numerous subgenres. No single game can capture the full essence of RPGs, as they offer a wide range of experiences. While some RPGs guide players through a main quest, they often provide the freedom to explore, create, and craft their own stories within the game’s structure.

RPGs are known for their unforgettable moments—those lingering experiences that stay with players long after the game is over. This ability to create lasting memories is what makes RPGs one of the most beloved genres in gaming. Below are the most popular RPG subgenres, each with a brief description of what makes them unique.
