The Escapist is a web resource site that advocates and supports role-playing games (RPGs) as a social and educational activity and works to educate the public on the true nature of gaming and dispel myths and misunderstandings about the hobby. It is one of a handful of sites that promote RPGs as an activity rather than advocating or supporting any specific game systems.The site was created in December 1995 by William J. Walton and has been regularly updated for more than a decade.
