Ironcross32 is correct, a hero's call is going to be great. Another game you might like is manamon, an rpg in the style of pokemon.

Hi Tensoon welcome to the forum, ---- hopefully your not planning on assassinating and absorbing anyone round here .

the idea of the db is to provide some information. You can to an extent get an idea of who likes what by the number of users who vfavourite each thing, but in general I can see the problem.

As Iron cross said, sadly we're still waiting for that audio final fantasy game, though I can we have made some steps into the rpg field a little recently.

Manamon from Vgstorm is a good place to start for rpgs, think pokemon in audio. Paladin of the skies was their previous effort and while it has a few more holes than manamon it is a fun game to spend time with.

Entombed is also worth a try, think a dungeon crawler with lots of randomness, also if you have an IPhone I can't recommend King of dragon pass highly enough, everything from rpg and strategy to story.

Sadly I have heard the adventure to fate games are  requiring an update to Ios 10 which is a shame since if you like detailed turn based combat those would definitely be up your alley.

Another idea might be the smuggler series. These are a bit more problematic to play since they're actually graphical games that have had screen reader friendly text added to them, but they can be good fun, think turn based elite with professions, war and lots of other addons.

Stratogy wise we have several options. Sound rts was an attempt at audio Warcraft and while not as detailed is worth a play, you should also try time of conflict a modern stratogy game from Gma games, though that one is a bit more difficult to grasp.
There are then various more conventional board and card game options, in particular here I'm thinking of jungle chess from Blastbay.

If your a turn based battles fan you should also try crazy party. Half of the game is an arcade minigame Mario party style challenge, (which is surprisingly fun), however the other half is a ccg battle game with some rules based on pokemon. Though there is no actual story, there is lots of deck building and strategy and the chance to challenge others online in battles.

There was also recently a game called Echo quadrent, a turn based space management and exploration game which I have not added to the db yet, but which you can find out about in the new releases room.

Another place to look,for both strategy and rpgs is into the world of online and text games, since while in audio not as much is available there are some very good browser games and mmorpgs.

in the first category, puppet nightmares is highly worth a look, think evil twisted pokemon an anime type story about battling evil puppets and some adult aspects (puppet can go to the brothel to breed for example), also  more detailed Darkor, though bare in mind both of those might take a bit of doing with your screen reader.
Core exiles is also worth a play, an online turn based space management game.

Another possibility is what are called muds.

These are real time textual games played across the internet and usually take the form of rpgs. To play them you need a mud client such as vipmud from gmagames, and then you just connect text is sent from the mud to your screen, and occasionally used to activate sounds on your computer.One mud in particular, Alteraeon deserves a special mention since it has it's own custom sound based client and effectively enough sounds and music that it is virtually a full online audiogame worl, someone did describe it as the closest thing to accessible world of Warcraft, and while probably not that extreme it's worth a look.

Alteraeon though isn't the only mud out there (especially if your willing to play games with text), and other great muds exist too.

Some of my favourites include the puzzle orientated Frandom, the combat heavy but still occasionally fun Erion, it's more serious big brother Aardwolf, and Cosmic rage, a great space based mud with full vehicle combat, alien races and lots of different activities.

So, lots of stuff to try out, hopefully this gives a bit of an overview and some ideas where to start.

Any questions, please feel free to ask.

Thank you for all the recommendations.  I have a lot to look into now.  Other than the MUD's mentioned, are there any games that play like MOBA's?  Games that are team focussed like Dota, league of legends or counter strike?

manamon and entombed are  a good start.
there are also some really great japanese audiogames out there, but since you need an extra tool, I am not really recommend those games for now.
team focus hmm?, on a quite fps game called redspot you could create a team and do some fun stuff, but the game has an unbalance issue a bit... and I am not sure the developer willing to fix it or not.

I would honestly recommend staying away from red spot and survive the wild, because while they do have their good points, there's a lot of immaturity and drama surrounding them with both the players and admin team. They are fun for a while, but not worth it long term.

Manamon is cool, but its a blatant pokemon rip off. There is a lot to do in manamon, and its definitely worth it, however I figured I'd recommend that since if you are a huge pokemon fan, that might be a little annoying.

Aprone's games are cool, and they usually require strategy of some kind. I'm sure you'll find something you like there.
I did like tomb hunter as well.

Manamon is cool, but yeah, I think its less inspired work and more a rip off. I still play it however.

Hi,
If you don't mind some adult language and concepts and like muds, I'd recommend Inferno MOO, a post-apocalyptic mud that's been in development for about 14 years. When people look at this, it probably strikes them as just a p0rn game, but the adult nature is just what sticks out most. The game actually has in depth crafting, equipment and combat systems. There is kind of a team aspect, as for endgame areas, sometimes you need a team to go fight tough monsters. There are also corporations, which are basically teams. Each corporation can have a headquarters, which can be a hangout location for the corp, and/or a place to store gear that the corp can draw from. The world is massive, with many different areas to explore, monsters to fight and equipment to choose from.
Inferno MOO is actually forked from a game called Hell MOO, and you could play that as well, but the community is smaller and, from my experience, not as toxic in Inferno. They have also made Inferno MOO a bit more forgiving. For example, when you reroll, you only lose experience points you gained from combat, not from doing quests. In Hell MOO, you lose all experience. They also replaced the orphanage, which was the starting area for newbies to kill things, with a factory full of defective clones, so you're not killing kids.
Now, inferno MOO is an adult game, and there might be some cursing, sex and the like, but you can stay away from it for the most part if you want to.

Wow tactical battle has different factions? I'll have to check that game out myself.
time of conflict has the ability to but I don't know how many people have built campaigns that involve them.

one game which is continually getting updates currently is warsim. That is a kingdom management and expantion game with singleplayer rpg options and even randomly generating enemies and races. It gets literally weekly updates so goodness knows where things are going with it now.

There are lots of expantion/empire building brouser games, but usually they tend to revolve around who can minimax fastest and kill the competition, though some of them have none competitive survers such as space odyssey, though I will say a single player 4x game is something we're waiting on, especially mix of 4x and rpg, indeed I remember my brother playing one of the might and magic games and really fancying the idea of the thing myself.

Another game which I'd highly recommend is castaways. This is a single player settling and town building game with population growth, and even missions.
A sequel is currently in beta which has more serious multiplayer pvp options, but both are worth a try.

hth.

Alright.  I have a lot to look into now.  I am quite glad some of the options mentioned are free to play.  I did not expect these games to be as expensive as they are.  I am not from the US and the exchange rate makes some of these games extremely expensive.  It is also pretty cool that most of the premium games have demo's so I can decide whether I like them or not. 

The lack of demo' versions of regular games are what made me come here in the first place.  I can still play the odd RPG if they have high contrast visuals and mini-maps, but most of them do not have demos.  I spent a fortune on Persona 5 a couple of weeks ago and I really can't play it.  I can navigate it, but it has stealth mechanics which makes my slow and sluggish navigation fall a bit short.

Thank you for the recommendations and warm welcome.  I am sure I will be dwelling in the shadows of this forum from now on.  Like a true Kandra, you should not expect to see me around much, but know that I am here.

@tensoon I had a similar problem, though in my case it was the lack of stuff that could be played 2d and without text, particularly in depth side scrollers  were somewhat rpg like like some of the later mega man x and Metroid games, ---- then they got all 3d and annoying which is why I looked into audio and text games, which finally gave me the chance to play a lot more rpgs.

Most audiogames on windows have demos, and a lot of online games and muds have donation systems. Even as far as games on Ios  the majority of the more expensive options such as King of dragon pass have demos, indeed if your looking for a semi rpg, semi strategy game with really deep gameplay that is a very good bet if you have access to an IPhone.

Totally agree with iron cross. stay away from Survive the Wild and Red Spot, I don't even recommend you play them for the same reason. For online games I Recommend you play Swamp, Road to Rage, Crazy Party, Undead Assault though it's still beta but fun to try, and won't forget mentioning QuentinC's playroom which is a big multiplayer game that has a quite good collection of card and dice games, also it's fun for chatting and meeting new friends and having fun. Regarding rpg's, I won't add anything since folks have done well job detailing. A Hero's Call is coming which will be pretty great also.
