List of Computer Role-playing Games
This is a chronological listing of computer role-playing games that I am covering in cRPG History.
This list has been posted for self-reference purposes and personal progress-tracking. As of January 2026 the number of cRPGs listed stands at 656. I will add to this list in the future.
Note that, as of 2026, Lilura1's cRPG coverage began with Baldur's Gate 12 years ago. Lilura1 wrote half a million words on Baldur's Gate and 300 thousand words on Neverwinter Nights. Five of Lilura1's long-form cRPG articles are 30,000 words in length, maxing out at 39,000 words and 411 images for a single article.

The First cRPG: Devil's Dungeon 1977 TRS-80
The first commerical cRPG released for home computers was Charles William Engel's Devil's Dungeon of 1977.
Coded in the Basic programming language (Micro-Soft, 1975), Devil's Dungeon features dungeon exploration, combat encounters, experience-point acquisition, wealth accumulation, 2x character stats and environmental hazards.
Devil's Dungeon running on the TRS-80: the above infographic is to be read row by row, from left to right. After assembling the infographic I removed a few lines of text-repetition (in the 6th panel) and changed the font color from native blue to white in order to increase readability. Otherwise, this is exactly how Devil's Dungeon presents itself.
