QRPG

Quirky RPGs have a goofy yet earnest vibe, and are sometimes called Earthboundlikes because of the seminal game in the genre, Earthbound. Like the letter Q, they feel halfway between J & W RPGs because they are linear like many JRPGs and much more irreverent, like many WRPGs. Technically, they are a subgenre of JRPG but also .

After playing Earthbound, many people are inspired to make their own QRPG in RPG Maker.
