These are former articles, focusing mostly on tabletop role-playing games, as well as hobby board and card games, which have been deleted or redirected. Most of these will never be restored, but never say never; F.A.T.A.L. was deleted twice at AFD, and Victorian Age: Vampire was a redirect from 2009 to 2014, but both of those are Good articles now!

If the article was deleted or redirected at AFD, I have included a link to the AFD. If it was redirected due to AFD or editorial discretion, I have included a link to the last good version of the article. I also tried to include links to websites such as RPGnet, RPGgeek, or BGgeek.

This list focuses on commercially-produced games, and therefore does not include most variants for traditional board and card games like chess, draughts, mancala, go, shogi, or playing cards. This list also omits video game adaptations of tabletop games. It also leaves off most topics covered better at Wikipedia:WikiProject Magic: The Gathering.

Fictional elements

edit

For these, I did not include links to any AFDs or any external links; providing notability for fictional elements is always an uphill battle. Still, these are provided here in case you are looking for a challenge!

This does not include anything from Dungeons & Dragons.
