Games based on tabletop (AKA pen and paper) role-playing games, such as Dungeons & Dragons or Vampire: The Masquerade. These can have any type of gameplay, as long as they are set in the tabletop game's universe.
Some creatures don't need guns or swords to hurt you. Instead they pack a punch with some kind of deadly breath attack, be it flaming, poisonous, radioactive, or just plain bad!
A staple in both the real-time and turn-based strategy genres, Fog of War simulates the unknowns of the battlefield by covering areas of the map, to be progressively revealed by the player.
Humans are bipedal, sapient primates capable of abstract reasoning, language, and emotions.
Games devoid of or mostly without music, including games with title screen music, but with little to no gameplay music.
A game concept derived from implementing pen & paper mechanics into video games such as Neverwinter Nights. A "natural 20" occurs when a player rolls a 20 on a 20-sided dice. A player can experience rolling a natural 20 in video games when dice rolls are implemented into combat or world mechanics.
Procedural Generation refers to the creation of content algorithmically as the game is running. This content generally coexists with standard, authored content; the two are not mutually exclusive.
Enemies that appear out of nowhere and force the player into a battle.
Dungeons that are generated randomly.
Games with randomly (or rather, procedurally) generated environments create new levels from predetermined pieces each time the game is played.
Slashing weapons are designed to cut and slice rather than causing blunt trauma. Examples include swords, axes, claws, naginatas, or even whips.
