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.

A game where you have to start over from the beginning when you die. Often goes together with procedural generation, so it doesn't get boring!

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

Games where the primary goal is keeping the player character alive under harsh circumstances such as dwindling resources or a hostile environment.
