Hi all,
Does anybody know of any RPG games in FOSS ? Looking forward to make acquaintance if somebody knows something.

You're looking for active in-development RPGs, no matter whether they are 2D, 3D, command-line-based, web broser based, MMORPGs, jRPGs, western RPGs, Hack & Slash RPGs, roguelikes, 1st or 3rd or iso-something perspective? Or do inactive-but-playable project interest you as well?

While I wait for your reply, here are unspecific lists of FOSS RPGs:

umm... active in-development RPG's , 2D graphical (no MMORPG's nor web-browser based) although can play it within web-browser if I can download the game and play it offline (not using internet) . Western RPG's would also be cool (haven't played any honestly) .

I think I have seen both the lists you shared but still going to look again, who knows I find something which I might have missed or added since the last time I saw it.

You kind of exclude western RPGs, so I assume you're talking about jRPGs. I unfortunately have only two finished but inactive suggestions to give.
https://libregamewiki.org/Ardentryst (more of a platformer RPG).

I am curious to know what western RPGs are like ? By western RPG's do you mean something to do cowboys and stuff or something else altogether ?

I don't know much about it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of ... ideo_games

I usually mean "like Baldur's Gate" by that term. Maybe "D&D and the like" would be a good description too.

"Extra Credits" is a nice series and they have a 3-episode history lesson for wRPG vs jRPG: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=extra%20credi ... ese%20rpgs

Thanx, saw those pretty interesting. While you're right I'm more for JRPG's (i.e. stories) but also enjoy the western RPG's . If you know of any new ones(foss with repos. either on github, sourceforge.net or elsewhere but projects having some sort of source control), feel free to share them here.
