CRPG Book Project - 12 more notable RPGs

by Arhu, 2015-07-24 09:17:31

CRPG Book Project author Felipe expanded his abridged version of CRPG History with a second part, titled 12 more RPGs that brought something new to the table.

Now, if that wasn't clear last time, I'm intentionally leaving out games like Diablo, Fallout, Baldur's Gate, Mass Effect and other extremely popular titles that everyone know about in order to focus on the obscure and amusing games, mechanics or even curiosities.

This once again is just a random sampling of cool/weird computer RPGs I wanted to talk about, in no way intended to be a comprehensive listing - that's what the CRPG Book is for (..)

Games in the spotlight:

  • Rings of Zilfin (1987)
  • Star Saga: One - Beyond the Boundary (1988)
  • The Magic Candle (1989)
  • Might & Magic III: Isles of Terra (1991)
  • Princess Maker 2 (1993)
  • Superhero League of Hoboken (1994)
  • Omikron: The Nomad Soul (1999)
  • Gorky 17 (1999)
  • Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura (2001)
  • Freedom Force (2002)
  • 7.62 High Calibre (2007) & Marauder (2009)
