2d rpg games recommendations?

[chongjasmine]

I like to play rpg games, but prefer the graphics to be 2d. Any recommendations?

Do you mean roguelike games?

One of the most well known is NetHack (well in my house it is)

It pretty much has to be Baldurs Gate. Maybe also Planescape Torment. Both cheap, with vast worlds, easy to learn and with great storylines. And with varying make ups of parties and ways of playing, (almost) infinitely replayable.

Dungeons & Dragons has 2ds, but it really goes deep into the 4th dimension when playing.

Chrono Trigger is a great classic. Stardew Valley is also very good and addictive, is that an rpg?

You can get the best RPG ever made, Phantasy Star IV, on Steam for under a pound.

Old, but super cool.

Stardew Valley​

Ori And The Blind Forest​

not rpg, but if you enjoy physics World of Goo is terrific

Thanks.

Rimworld

and it's great granddaddy, Dwarf Fortress

Both are great story generators, although DF probably needs the same effort as university degree to master....

Sea of stars is a good one. I haven't finished it yet, but it's a fun game that doesn't take itself too seriously.

I have been meaning to check this one out. It's on the Xbox Game Pass too, so I might download it this weekend.

I liked very Kingmaker and Wrath of the Righteous cRPGs from Owlcat. Thay have things I loved in old Infinity Engine Games and some more.

I liked a lot about Kingmaker but wasn't a fan of how the strategic kingdom management system worked. The approach in Wrath of the Righteous is a lot better, I think.
