What genre is Angry Birds Epic listed as?

Angry Birds Epic is listed as a role-playing game.

Released in 2014, Angry Birds Epic was a major genre shift for Rovio’s franchise. Instead of launching birds from a slingshot, players controlled bird characters in turn-based battles against pigs. The game also included equipment, crafting, consumable items, character classes, and resource management—features strongly associated with role-playing games.

Chimera Entertainment developed the title, while Rovio Entertainment published it. The story takes place on Piggy Island and begins with Red trying to recover stolen eggs. Chuck, Matilda, Bomb, and the Blues join the roster as the adventure progresses, each taking on different combat roles.

Several options in the quiz are genres associated with other Angry Birds titles. Kart racing describes Angry Birds Go!, tile-matching describes Angry Birds Pop!, and pinball is associated with Angry Birds Star Wars II’s related content rather than Epic. Angry Birds Epic was soft-launched in March 2014 and released worldwide on 12 June 2014.
