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.

Inspired by (or directly containing elements of) storytelling and visual design that are otherwise most commonly seen in Japanese animation.

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

Either prominently containing or entirely themed around romance, this genre is typically focused on interpersonal romantic relationships between characters and the player.
