Role-playing games without a keyboard

[blessedCoffee]

I'm lookin' for role-playing games which can be played without making use of a keyboard.

To exemplify:

Fallout and Fallout 2 can be played on mouse only.

NEO Scavenger can be played on mouse only.

I don't want to jack off and my arm is not crippled, nuh-uh. But post your NSFW recommendations, if you feel like it.

 

[__scribbles__]

Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss can be completed with only a mouse.
I think many late '90s to early '00s isometric RPGs can be completed with only a mouse, but I may be wrong about that.

Dragon Age II, Fallout 4, Skyrim... a world of incline awaits, brother.

technically, you could use your mose to send key presses to the game using an on-screen keyboard.

 

[Vic]

there are even voice recognition programs for cripples that send keys based on your words

KOTOR 1,2. Pretty unique in that regard. I replay them regulary mostly because of how convenient the controls are.

Can I play Mortal Kombat this way?

Cool stuff. But I'm lookin' for games that you can play only using the mouse, by default.

I have a mouse something like this, could probably play most games with one hand:

There is a keyboard in that picture. blessedCoffee asked for games you can play without one.

yea but you operate it with one hand
peak efficiency

Every turn-based "isometric" RPG and probably most RTwP ones can be played with mouse only. In turn-based games, I usually only control the camera with my keyboard, but that can be done comfortably with the mouse as well. I can also attest that all IE games can also be played with mouse only if you find a way to comfortably pause the game (maybe get a mouse with buttons on the side).

what would you do with the other hand, huh

You use your left hand to push the buttons on the side of the mouse.

Dungeon Master possesses an innovative, mouse-drive user interface:

Not only did Dungeon Master in 1987 create the "paper doll" inventory screen, but for its main interface ringed the central first-person view with controls and info relating to each party member, the party members in relation to each other (and individual party member facing!), the magic system for spell-casting, weapons/items held by each character for immediate use, and directional movement --- all contained on one screen!

 

[Gregz]

There are more than a few controller friendly cRPGs too.

 

[Glop_dweller]

...And of course Eye Of The Beholder followed Dungeonmaster; playable with just the mouse—excepting copy protection challenges.

Legend of Grimrock is notable for adding click-arrow control due to a comment on their blog, from someone who really needed it.
LoG2 also supports this.

Wizardry 8 can be played with mouse control only . include walking and camera control

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

It might be easier to name the games which are not controllable via only mouse. Anything not action oriented and made after 1993 has a mouse-centric GUI.

 

[luj1]

Wizardry VIII I think

 

[buffalo bill]

I prefer keyboard-only tbh

The only proper way to play RPG without keyboard

Spoiler

As a bonus, you don't have to use a mouse either.

Happy to help!

Also any rpg on consoooles.

To come to think of it, you can use a controller with pc too.

Don't you think OP would feel a bit embarrassed to rub one out in company of fellow travelers? :makesyouthink:
