RPG Time: The Legend of Wright[a] is a 2022 adventure video game[1] developed by DeskWorks and published by Aniplex. Described as a "handwritten role-playing game", the visuals of RPG Time are depicted as a hand-drawn series of paper-and-pencil games on a notebook presented to the player as a role-playing adventure. Development of the game was led by Japanese designer Tom Fuji, who had worked on the game for over ten years, and cited his childhood experiences with hand-made games from craft materials as the inspiration for the game's visual design and theme.

The game received mixed reviews from critics, with reviewers praising the visual presentation and charm of the game, but criticizing the execution of its varied gameplay elements. It received several awards and nominations, including for 'Excellence in Visual Arts' at the Independent Games Festival in March 2023.
