RPGs are where asset ownership is supposed to matter most — characters, gear and progression as owned items. It’s also the genre with the widest honest spread in our registry: live worlds like Big Time, Guild of Guardians and RavenQuest sit alongside paused titles and documented shutdowns like Ember Sword and Phantom Galaxies. The genre’s depth makes it the most telling cross-section of whether NFT games actually survive — each entry here is evidence-dated, so you can see which are still maintained and which already failed.
