New survey! So far we've talked about card games, visual novels, roguelikes, hidden gems, itch.io games, Touhou games, and 3D games. Folks have added great games in the shares and comments sections. I'm working on a thing where I'm gonna start compiling these and sharing them as hidden gem recommendations.

So, this time: What's your favorite turn-based indie RPG?

We've already had a post asking about roguelikes so I'm more interested in hearing about non-roguelike recommendations in this case.

What's the definition of an "RPG"? I don't know! But I'm curious to hear which ones click with you. Video game or tabletop is fine.

Which are your favorites? Let me know in the comments!

Hello cohosters!
