A number of roleplaying games (RPGs) exist within the World of Darkness, most of them direct parodies of real-world RPGs published by White Wolf or other companies.

RPG Companies

There are a multitude of companies who produce RPGs. The most popular companies are Magicians of the Bay and Black Dog Game Factory.

A list of the big guns include:

Apex Amusement Association, known for Undead Cowboy, Undead Cowboy Train Duel, Radioactive Cowboy and Superhero Radicals.
Cryptograph
Discordium, known for games based on the fiction of Edgar Allen Poe.
LSD, Inc. Created the popular Labyrinths & Lamiae, mismanaged it, and collapsed. LSD was "merged" with MotB to help recoup costs.
Magicians of the Bay (or MotB, pronounced "mot-bee"). Made millions off the popular card game Buy More Sorcery. Currently own and operate L&L.
Black Dog Game Factory, who burst into the industry with Revenant: The Ravishing and the attendant World of Shadow. Their games use the Talespinner System, whose Storyteller analogue is naturally called the Talespinner.
The Game Designer's Group
