Games like Mars Colony: 39 Dark, My Life with Master, The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen, Sorcerer and Best Friends label themselves RPGs right up front, so I'd prefer to draw the lines inclusive of them. (Puppetland doesn't.) When most of the games in the genre call themselves RPGs; when they claim descent from D&D or The Fantasy Trip or offer thanks to Gygax; when there's no strong line between what we're considering RPGs and these games; I prefer to draw the line inclusive of them.</p></blockquote><p></p>
