What are the best RPGs: games that defined generations, changed the rules and stuck around in the memory long after we finished them? Role-playing games are some of the biggest, deepest video games around, there are a lot of them, and many of them are extremely good. That makes choosing the best 10 ever made a monumental task, but by god, we’re going to give it a go.
The only rule we’ve set is that we can’t choose multiple games from the same series. If your favorite RPG isn’t here, just assume the other game in the same series is a stand-in for it. We’re also not just judging these games based on our own personal preferences – there’s a bit of that, but we’re looking at their wider cultural impact and general consensus as well. So strap in and come with us as we take a look at the 10 best RPGs of all time.
