Cycle Idle RPG

A free idle RPG with the genuine article — true 1:1 offline progression — attached to a retention design that keeps demanding you come back and play minigames by hand.

Dark Deity

A Kickstarter-funded, GBA-era Fire Emblem homage that launched buggy and unbalanced in 2021, drew backlash for a bolted-on ad launcher and a swimsuit DLC, and has spent four years of patches earning enough goodwill to justify a 2025 sequel.

Dark Devotion

A Souls-like dark fantasy action RPG whose stamina-based combat and boss design draw strong, specific praise, built around a punishing blessing-and-curse death penalty system that the same review base credits as harsh-but-fair and condemns as arbitrarily unfair almost in equal measure.

Death's Gambit

White Rabbit's 2D souls-like metroidvania launched thin and unpolished in 2018, then got a genuinely massive free overhaul three years later -- and while Afterlife fixed a lot, its own recent reviews show real, specific problems (balance spikes, no fast travel until late, a six-year-old unfixed framerate bug) that never fully went away.

Digimon Survive

A long-delayed, darker Digimon story that both its fans and its critics agree is a visual novel first and a tactical RPG a distant second -- and whose own trailers, by wide reviewer account, misled buyers about exactly that ratio.

DmonMaster

A 3v3 auto-battle collector RPG about assembling a squad from 100 possible Dmon, each with a three-stat build, a four-part skill kit and its own leveled equipment — you draft the team, then watch it fight on its own across a hex-tile map.

Drag'N Dungeon

A grid-free tactical auto-battler where a debut studio builds its progression entirely around unlocking a permanent roster of up to 40 voxel heroes across 90-plus numbered challenges — a real meta-progression system wearing a much busier genre label than its mechanics actually earn, checked against a launch weekend with zero player-count evidence either way.

Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition

A genre-defining, universally beloved CRPG whose Steam version has become genuinely unreliable on modern hardware — three-quarters of this review's negative sample cite crashes, the complaint has worsened every year since 2023 rather than fading, and 16 of 100 negative reviewers independently recommend buying the DRM-free GOG version instead.

Dungeons & Donuts

A co-op fantasy action-RPG that opened Early Access to a rare thing in this library — a completely unanimous English review sample. Every review so far is short, enthusiastic, and upfront that it's judging a promise more than a finished game.

Dungeon Siege

A genuine early-2000s hack-and-slash classic whose Steam release is missing real, checkable content from the original 2002 game — multiplayer, the ending cutscene, and the Legends of Aranna expansion are all absent by default — a severe, well-corroborated product-completeness problem this review found reported consistently from 2015 through 2026.

Echoes of Aincrad

A Sword Art Online action RPG that finally lets you build a hero of your own inside Aincrad, with tight Souls-inflected combat and a genuinely sharp partner-synergy system — undercut by a linear, quest-marker world and a $69.99 asking price that assumes you'll buy back in for the DLC.

Echoes of Mystralia

A spellcrafting action-RPG roguelite from Borealys Games, spun off from their 2019 action-adventure Mages of Mystralia -- gorgeous, ambitious, and Very Positive on Steam, but carrying a large, detailed, high-vote-count minority of reviews describing brutal early balance that undercuts its own centrepiece spell-crafting system.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising

A charming, town-building prequel built to bridge Suikoden fans to the crowdfunded Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes -- loved for its characters and world, but honest with itself about being, structurally, a fetch-quest and material-farming loop dressed up as an action RPG.

EternaMine

A mining-and-combat idle RPG, the follow-up to the popular browser game Haste-Miner 2, still running fresh monthly contests more than three years after launch — despite a prestige system some 2023-2024 reviewers say breaks the entire economy the moment you use it.

Everfall 2: Idle Dungeon RPG

A solo developer's second attempt at an idle dungeon-crawler swaps out the save-corrupting mess of the original for a genuinely deep six-hero, four-party build system — but the review sample is still small, and the rough edges that sank the first game haven't all been sanded off.

Everholm

A gorgeous, open-ended cozy farming RPG whose central mystery hook — why does everyone on this island know you, and where is your missing sister — draws players in and then goes conspicuously quiet, leaving a well-crafted farm sim without the narrative payoff its own setup promises.

EverQuest II

Twenty-two years old, twenty-two expansions deep, and still shipping a full expansion every December — EverQuest II is one of the most content-dense MMOs ever built, sold through a free-to-play shell that takes away the auction house, the chat channels and the top half of your spellbook until you subscribe.

Evitania Online - Idle RPG

A free-to-play, IdleOn-flavoured AFK RPG that gets the offline-progression fundamentals right and stays refreshingly uncomplicated early on, but ships an MMO label its actual single-player design doesn't earn and sharpens its monetisation considerably once the early Acts are behind you.

Fate/Samurai Remnant

A handsome Edo-era Holy Grail War from Koei Tecmo and Type-Moon whose biggest problem is its own marketing — buyers expecting a full musou battler from "the king of musou games" instead found a visual-novel-heavy story with occasional single-arena fights, playable as only one protagonist throughout.
