Few genres have as rich and varied as history as the noble RPG. We love a good, long, talky adventure, preferably with a nice levelling system with a little bit of crafting, alchemy and, if we're especially lucky, a lovely cloth map. But not every RPG is born equal, and games deserving of recognition and success sometimes sink into obscurity. Perhaps they came out at the same time as a blockbuster competitor,

perhaps they had flaws that put players off, or just looked ugly. We've collected together a ragtag ensemble of our favourites. Some are old, some are new, but all are worth installing and enjoying today. If you have any recommendations you'd like to add, share away in the comments
