The end of the year means that it is time to recapitulate the best of the last 12 months. In particular, 2021 was a great period for RPG of all kinds. From the independent scene, passing through medium productions, to the great releases of the most popular franchises in this medium. Thus, a simple visit to Metacritic reveals what were the best deliveries that this genre offered us in 2021.
In the list of the best RPG of 2021 we find titles like talk of arise and shin mega mi tense v, deliveries that have evolved substantially their respective series. We also see a healthy representation by the independent scene.
— Under Lilies: Quietus of the Knights — 84%

Editor’s note:
Without a doubt, this was a great year for RPG. Along with the mentioned titles, we also saw Neo: The World Ends With You and Voice of Cards, games that are also worthwhile for lovers of this genre. Hopefully 2022 is as good or better.
