A new independent RPG about the experience of today's educated, unemployed youth. Because, frankly, RPGs do not have to always be about dragons.

Unemployment Quest is a game created out of a desire to express the reality seen by the designer, Charles DeYoe. Early on in development, it was also decided that a positive spin should be added to make the game fun to play and also potentially give players hope, rather than wallowing in bleak despair.

HSL features thousands of items, monsters, and dungeon features, and with a new dungeon created every game you can be sure that no two plays will ever be the same. Boasting easy to master controls you'll be adventuring in no time, but there is still enough depth to challenge the most hardened of adventurers.

Return with us to the days when men were sprites (and so were women and dragons and kings). When 256 colors seemed like a luxury and games were known more for their gameplay than their flashy graphics. Inaria is an RPG created in that style, but with modern interface conveniences that make it easier to play, giving the best of both worlds.

Inaria is a land divided. The above-dwelling Humans and the subterranean Slorn had long been at peace…until a new Slorn King pushed his people into war with the surface. Many cities fell to the Slorn onslaught, but one held – Emerald, the last free city of Inaria. As a citizen of Emerald, you’ve decided that it’s time for you to join the fight. While the main forces prepare their defenses, King Gianfranco sends you on a seemingly impossible mission…to destroy the Slorn King himself.

Dungeon Fray is a fast paced roguelike game. The game features three playable classes, randomly generated levels, turn based combat and unlockable achievements and perks.

Perma-death, an engrossing story-mode coupled with a suitably infinite unlimited mode, all sorts of unlockable perks, and a rich selection of spells and monsters make Dungeon Fray a truly unique and dangerously replayable fantasy roguelike.

Frayed Knights: The Skull of S'makh-Daon is a rather huge 3D indie computer RPG for Windows featuring turn-based combat, old-school sensibilities, and a story of high adventure and comedy. Who says RPGs have to be so serious?

In a world of jaded heroes and veteran adventurers, you play a team of misfits: Arianna, a dainty warrior with an attitude problem; Dirk, an adrenaline-junky rogue who doesn’t seem to understand the word ‘subtle;’ Benjamin, a nature-priest and an ill-suited newcomer to the adventuring lifestyle, and Chloe, a ditsy sorceress with a love of cute, fuzzy animals and setting her enemies on fire.
