Red Hook Studios’ turn-based role playing game delves into psychology, a realm many games sidestep. This mental probing explores the effects on in-game characters, and through clever and innovative mechanics, the player shares the experience of their party members."
Tis the season to be spooky, and so Rogueliker has gathered together a collection of roguelikes and roguelites that have fun being scary.
We've endured the purest terror in all of gaming in order to bring you this terrifying list of horror roguelikes.
Twinfinite: "In the mood for a Dungeons and Dragons-like experience? We've got you covered. Inside, we run down ten of the best. Let's get into it!"
Best Video Games Like D&D. Includes two games that are literally using the D&D ruleset and have WotC D&D branding and one that uses the D&D 3.5 ruleset with custom classes (Pathfinder).
I really wish authors would spend more time explaining and detailing things rather than being so focused on throwing a list together for yet another opinion piece. There's a ton you can say about all of these games and their ties to Pen and Paper roleplaying. Other than Armello, all of the listed games are inspired by various PnP RPGs, including Warhammer for one of them. Obsidian alone got much of their start in classic D&D RPGs and Dragon Age was their own take on many of their past creations molded into one that was even turned into a PnP game.
I'm just glad I don't get a disease irl every time a step somewhere new... and getting bulimia just by stepping in a basement :/
