Role-playing games let you assume the role of a protagonist, customizing their abilities, equipment, and appearances. Through exploration, dialogue, and strategic combat, players navigate worlds, uncover lore, complete missions, and level up their characters.

Set in a fictional universe, often (but not always) with fantastic or supernatural elements, alternate worlds, magic and monsters.

Near infinitely replayable games that usually feature, random generation, perma-death, and brutal difficulty. 

A perspective where the camera is placed directly above the player. Common in 2D games, but can also be used in 3D games.
