Japanese role-playing games are role-playing games made in Japan.
 Japanese role-playing games made their first appearance during the 1980s.
 Today, there are hundreds of Japanese-designed games as well as several translated games.
 Traditional RPGs are referred to as "tabletop RPGs" or "table-talk RPGs" ("TTRPG", or "TRPG") in Japan to distinguish them from the video role-playing game genre.
The Buffyverse role-playing games - the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Angel" role-playing games - are complementary, officially licensed role-playing games (RPGs) published by Eden Studios, Inc. The "Buffy the Vampire Slayer Core Rulebook" was published in 2002, while the "Angel Corebook" followed in 2003.
 Both games use a streamlined (or "Cinematic") version of Eden Studios' popular "Unisystem" game engine, also featured in "CJ Carella's WitchCraft" and "All Flesh Must Be Eaten", two of Eden's better-known original product lines.
 In both games, players are able to take on the roles of characters from the respective television series or create wholly original characters as they and their group see fit, effectively building their own Buffyverse series in the process.

Live action role-playing games, known as LARPs, are a form of role-playing game in which live players/actors assume roles as specific characters and play out a scenario in-character.
 Technically, many childhood games may be thought of as simple LARPs, as they often involve the assumption of character roles.
 However, the scope of this article concerns itself mainly with LARPing in a technical sense: the organized live-action role-playing games whose origins are closely related to the invention of tabletop role-playing games in America in the 1970s.
