Best Indie RPG You Should Try
Five years ago, role-playing games were the domain of large studios and teams under the wings of big publishers. But after the indie boom, it became clear that RPGs can be created even without large budgets.
Many role-playing games from independent developers may not boast realistic graphics, but they win over players with fresh solutions that AAA publishers do not allow. This is what makes such games valuable.
