    I have a LOT of issues with that list...but I love the site and the proprietor of said site, so I'm not going to get into the definition of an RPG now.

    It's funny...the only paper and pen RPG I ever bought and attempted to play (none of my friends wanted to read any of the booklets) was called "Paranoia!", and the main premise was that the GM had real ultimate power. Amything to further the narrative, as long as it was funny. Someone contests a rule? The gm can change the rules at will. Kill the character. You don't question Big Brother (the GM).

    Party about to successfully complete a game? And survive? Find a way to kill them. They aren't SUPPOSED to survive.

    How to get the IT Security Credentials for the Internet Provider mussion? <.<

    There is a main story, differently noted on the map and optional missions as well, so no random battles. Each mission is actually a battle. You get byteCredits and ResearchPoints from them. You can buy items from BCs and increase your skills with RCs.
    As I wrote before, you don't wander on the map, you just tap and select a mission. In the cities you can have other missions or get an interaction between your characters.
    On the map your HP and Energy points slowly increase. You can use your skills from the Energy points (not all requires it). I think the HP and Energy is common for all characters. You can decide in each turn which character's skill to use (or item or defending) - so only one move per turn. In this sense it is uniqe, don't remember any similar one.
    Still not too deep in the story to tell anything about it. Graphics is okay (sometimes great, sometimes not so), but I don't really like the music and sounds (others might find it good).
    Main problem is stability. Have to close a lot of apps for it to run at all and there still are some crashes, luckily it autosaves often (can save manually too).

    It just sounded and looked so cheesy. Thats why it sounded faked, even if you guys did hang around here for years. No offense ment.

    Really, because they showed enthusiasm for it? I know people can get a bit acerbic round here at times but they do as a rule give games the benefit of the doubt normally.

    No, it was because of the pictures where you can barely see the game but big breasted manga babes instead. Normally that doesent say anything good about a game :)

    But if my intuition has tricked me i do apologies.

    Yeah...you'll know I'm joking when I make a post about Bras vs. Panties, Sperminator, or Pissy Flip.

    You play enough Japanese-influenced games, you eventually forget the boobies are even there.

    Well, that was kind of a bummer, saw the thread and wanted to check the game out but it was already gone. I wonder why it got pulled.
