Despite sticking to the basics, it made the most of them with plenty of NPCs to talk to, charming graphics in exploration and combat, and a quest with unusual characters and monsters inspired by Japanese folklore. You only had one character to focus on and, of course, quite a bit of grinding ahead!

Breath of Fire III (1997) by Capcom was an RPG for the Sony PlayStation. In a world where dragons are long extinct, a baby dragon has been discovered! Escaping and then disguising itself as a human boy, what follows is a tale of rogues, mystery, and the return of ancient evil. (a tiny dragon thread)

Encounters were more in your face in this chapter, but unlike the first game, it came with a text file filled with hints on how to solve it (if not how to survive some of the more crushing surprises!) continuing to stand out as a murder mystery series that also spoke RPG.

Hioden: Mamono-tachi tono Chikai (1992) | strategy RPG | PC-98 and the Super Famicom | Wolfteam Traveling a road paved by vengeance for the betrayal that drove him and his allies to ruin, the man who would become the Scarlet King would make a pact with a mysterious dryad for an army of demons!

Several years later, Nihon Falcom demonstrated how far they had come with a multimedia makeover of Legend of Heroes' port to the TG-16 CD (1991) featuring more of the amazing music their titles were also renowned for. Mieko Ishikawa, one of Falcom Sound Team's founders, had also worked on the game.

Mostly a solo adventure, from time to time an NPC may tag along and give you advice (and leave all of the fighting to you!). Outside of its simple, button-controlled combat, it followed a basic, easy-to-follow formula for RPGs keeping things simple and familiar as you quest to save the world.

Gauntlet II (1986) | dungeon crawler | arcade | Atari Games A year later, Atari delivered even more dungeons with a sequel! Players could now choose the same character (party of Wizards anyone?), introduced new maps with features like invisible walls, and still reminded you not to shoot the food.

Made it to the end of the Adventures of Elliot prologue and enjoyed it for the most part. I didn't quite vibe with everything in it, but nothing that detracted too heavily from the overall experience for me. Also appreciate it as one of those demos that saves your progress for the full game!

Wibarm mixed 2D action and 3D exploration. Defeating enemies earned stat improvements (Ability and Mental), different enemies were vulnerable to different weapons, and players were free to explore and leave areas if they were unprepared. You could even 'see' encounters and use an automap!
