In the 1970s, the genre of action games evolved from the age-old so-called war games. This is second in four to fifteen games for the main reason. As the world of digital games expanded, video game developers quickly turned to analog templates for inspiration. In this regard, numerous games have emerged that clearly have their origins in animated games or even play on licenses. As pop culture phenomena like Critical Role and Stranger Things, pen-and-paper role-playing becomes more popular and turns into an awareness of the general public. But what are the best pen and paper video games? This buyer’s guide video gives us a basic understanding of this question.
We focused on games that are actually licensed and that use the right rules. You could find an eternity pillar, but by example. As for the series, it uses the most advanced elements of classic pen and paper adjustments, the setting and rules are completely independent. The Gate 3, which is probably the biggest hope for Dungeons and Dragons fans. The game was always in Early Access at the time this buyer’s guide was written, but we cannot honestly recommend it even though the final product has not been tested. Nevertheless, you are sure to discover one or two interesting titles, perhaps some old acquaintances, or perhaps something of a surprise on our list. We want to have fun with epic adventures.

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (D&D 3rd Edition, 2003).
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Source: LucasArts Let’s start with the surprise and title, which probably few here expected. Star Wars is a relatively small game. However, developers developed the concept of Dungeons & Dragons where they worked on Old Republic Knights. After all, they successfully made direct conversions from the role-playing universe with Baldurs Gate 1 + 2 and Neverwinter Nights. Star Wars is a completely different cosmos, but the creators didn’t want to give up their roots entirely. A more precise definition of that role play was used in the combat system, by the 3rd Edition d20 offshoot.
This means that every fight goes well and is thrown according to the rules. In the game itself, playback is in real time, which can be paused at any time. Since we are aware that the battle seems rather undynamic today. We probably don’t need to say too many words about the other qualities that make this game one of the best in the history of our time. The story, music, characters and other aspects were highly recognized at the time. The plot twist in the story is still considered one of the best in the story.
The PC version can be seen today on Steam and GOG. In addition, it can be adapted to modern standards such as widescreen monitors. One, one and one can also play the classic on the Xbox One. Backwards compatibility is good enough for Xbox One and Xbox Series. Android and iOS also have successful versions. The game is now also available on the Switch. The port is playable, but the quality is not as good as the mobile versions.
“War of the Fall”; vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines.
Watch video! One screen per video? Although it was a cult classic of this genre, it was launched in a very bad shape, just as the developers took over Troika Games. It is considered an imperfect masterpiece because the world of the game today is still rich in writing, serious decisions and general atmosphere.
This game is based on the pen and paper universe of World of Darkness. This is the first game that took place in 1991 in the movie Vampire: The Masquerade. The game’s books sold millions of copies, making World of Darkness the second most successful role-playing game after Dungeons for a while. The world in which vampires, werewolves and demons use the fate of human history as a backdrop. In this world, vampires follow rules to keep their existence a secret and avoid unnecessary murders. The player takes on a young, newly transformed vampire who belongs to one of the seven clans.
The developers had trouble transferring the rules of World of Darkness to a real-time first-person combat system with guns and melee weapons. By stating that the rules of the template were not followed to perfection so that we could develop a playable combat system. The game is now available on Steam and GOG. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the unofficial fan patches and the unofficial mods as they give a higher rating.
