Star Wars RPG



         


A Star Wars RPG or Star Wars Role-Playing Game is a role-playing game set in the fictional Star Wars universe. Players can be Jedi, smugglers, droids, Wookiees, and pilot their starships around the galaxy in search of adventure.

There have been two official, licensed Star Wars RPGs:

A number of other RPGs claim some amount of inspiration or affinity to Star Wars as well.

The classic SF role-playing game Traveller was released in the summer of 1977, very close to the release of the original Star Wars movie. As a consequence, some of the original designers have remarked that for them the game and the movie were very similar, despite the fact that Traveller is generally considered to have a more Golden Age SF feel to it.

The indy rpg Paladin, by Anvilwerks, credits Star Wars as a major inspiration.
