Role-Playing Games, or RPGs, are a genre of games where players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting. Players engage in collaborative storytelling, often guided by a Game Master who narrates the world and its events. The choices players make can significantly influence the direction of the story. RPGs can be played in various formats, including tabletop games like Dungeons & Dragons and video games such as Final Fantasy. These games often involve character development, quests, and combat, allowing players to immerse themselves in rich narratives and complex worlds.
