A Simple Online Roleplay Game (abbreviated ASORG) is a browser-based, multiplayer role-playing game created, designed, and operated by a sole independent developer. The game was released in 2013 and receives updates monthly.

It uses hand-drawn graphics to represent Zones, Stages, and equipment. In ASORG, a player's character fights monsters for experience, Asorg Points (AP) (the game's currency), and items. Players may also interact with each other in the in-game economy by trading goods on the auction house, organize their characters into guilds, and work together on the war-torn battlefield in guild vs. guild warfare.

The game is free-to-play and does not incorporate any advertising.

Gameplay and features
Gameplay involves fighting monsters, completing quests, gaining skills and stats, and accumulating gear.

In ASORG's turn-based gameplay, unlike other web-broswer games, players are not limited to the amount of turns or adventures they may conduct during a day. Combat is turn-based, meaning that the player and the monster take turns attacking one another using weapons and skills. Players who successfully defeat a monster receive gold, AP (the game's currency), and various items. Upon character creating a player begins with a basic set of armor, base attributes and base abilities, all of which may be changed at anytime during gameplay.

ASORG is a linear game with side quests and arena bosses that get unlocked as a player progressess. ASORG is divided into zones, which include stages made up of 10 levels. After a player completes a stage they receive 1 Skill Point which they may used to increase the power of their character.

Player interaction
While ASORG's player versus environment content is largely single-player, some features allow multiplayer interaction.

Characters may join a guild at anytime during the game. After joining a guild characters are able to complete on the war-torn battlefield in guild v. guild combat. Guild members may receive bonus AP and gold as their guild castle increases in level. Guilds gain experience and the ability to buy better equipment as they attack other guilds.

Players can also buy and sell on the auction house. Players may sell up to 50 items at one time.

Character Classes
One defining characteristic of ASORG is that there are no character classes. At anytime in the game a player may adjust their character's attributes adjusting the characters health, strength, precision, or agility. Additionally, a player also has the ability to create attack and healing abilities. Characters are slotted four attack abilities of either a direct attack, area-of-effect attack, or heal. Players are able to distribute points among these abilities fully customizing their character to challenge the monsters of ASORG.
