RPG Games

History of RPG games

The original Role-playing game was called the tabletop role-playing game. These games are conducted through discussion, not physically performing the characters' actions live like in live action role-playing games (LARP). The game master decides on the rules and will make sure that all players play according to the rules. In 1974 a version of Dungeons & Dragons was released through electronic media. These computer RPG's were influenced by electronic gaming and can be divided into single and multiplayer games.
