Description
WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW ALL THE ROLE-PLAYING VIDEO GAMES IN HISTORY?
This book is the result of trying to play all the existing RPG games. This task is practically impossible, mainly because perhaps a lifetime is insufficient to tackle all the published titles. Or because of the difficulty of getting all the platforms for which they were created, many of them already obsolete and out of the market.
But these pages are the result of that insatiable search. They contain the experience of reliving all the games of this wonderful genre of videogames in chronological order. For the moment, this first installment compiles the sensations of the first RPG games, from their birth in the mid-1970s until their jump to video consoles in 1982.
This book summarizes the experience of hundreds of hours of playing, viewing and documentation so that you can enjoy the origin of RPG games in a simple way. I hope you enjoy this project and that it allows you to know the beginnings of a type of videogame that was always special, and which is difficult to investigate and discern about its origins.
In this book you will enjoy:
