A feature on the website [[Neopets]], these games are PHP RPGs, hard coded into the website. You can get Neopoints, avatars, items or [[Bragging Rights Reward|even trophies]] for your efforts. Despite both games being pretty old by the standards of the site (the original is over 10 years old,{{when}} and II is 7.{{when}} 3-D is 4,{{when}} but isn't as well known), they are still well played to this very day, and have very good fanbases still talking about them.
The first game (NeoQuest I) tells the story of a rather dashing young Lupe. He is transported back in time [[Excuse Plot|(for a reason)]] to Ancient Neopia (1,000 years ago), and has to fight the members (some former) of the Circle of Twelve, incuding Xantan, the Archmangus of Roo, Gors, and eventually Jahbal.

== ''Neoquest I'' ==
* [[Amazing Technicolor Wildlife]]: Just about every enemy in the game has a [[Palette Swap|recolored cousin]], with varying effects.
* [[Big Bad]]: Jahbal. {{spoiler|Or so it seems...}}
Line 72:
* [[Victory Pose]]: [http://images.neopets.com/nq/n/lupe_win.gif Cue snark of victory.]
== ''Neoquest II'' ==
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: Rohane, Mipsy, Talinia, Velm. It's reversed, actually.
** The main characters in NQII are named after characters from an [[EverQuest]] server.
Line 82:
* [[Bigfoot, Sasquatch, and Yeti]]: Scuzzy. Honestly.
* [[Catch Phrase]]:
{{quote|"[[PlayStation 2|Live in your world, get eaten by a Vampire Bearog in mine.]] - <s> Mr. Insane</s> [[The Matrix|The Architect]]
{{spoiler|Except there is no Vampire Bearog.}}
Whoo! It's all about aim, baby! - Talinia
We emerge victorious! - Rohane }}
** Rohane says that even if there is no "we", just him.
Line 98:
* [[Dismantled MacGuffin]]: Assume that your Ultimate Evil is a bunch of destructive tornadoes. The Medallion of Wind was used to control the weather before it was broken and scattered all over the place. The aim of this chapter is to put it back together. But Phebiya warns, "The artifact is powerful and should not be kept in its assembled form except when needed."
* [[Disney Villain Death]]: Scuzzy.
* [[Dronejam]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20140407230936/http://www.idnq-guide.com/index.php?page=maps
* [[Evil Overlord]]: Terask.
* [[Evil Sorcerer]]: Zombom, Ramtor, Hubrid Nox... might have missed a few.
Line 129:
** Also, Cumulonimbus. It's a huge city, and stone clouds are blocking your way everywhere you go. Even with a map, it's hard to make out which path to take.
* [[The Medic]]: Velm, hands down. Once you have him, you rarely need healing potions. Every player swears by his healing abilities. He can also become the [[Combat Medic]] if you invest in his only offensive spell.
* [[Mind Screw]]: Just... just check out the [http://www.idnq-guide.com/index.php?page=nq2cutscenes cutscenes.]{{Dead link}}
* [[Muck Monster]]: The Haunted Woods is full of these, including pools of living pond scum.
* [[Mummy]]: They're all over the place in the Lost Desert chapter.
Line 140:
* [[Randomly Drops]]: You can buy basic equipments from stores, but all the cool ones with +skills are randomly dropped, including most [[Infinity+1 Sword|Infinity Plus One Weapons and Armors]].
* [[Roguelike]]: Despite the easier difficulties, InSaNe will seem like this, with its [[Final Death]] rule in place. Made worse that all of the enemies have 2x health.
* [[Short Cuts Make Long Delays]]: [https://web.archive.org/web/20131120022111/http://www.idnq-guide.com/index.php?page=nq2npc
* [[Shout-Out]]: There are a ''lot'' of them.
** One NPC in the Lost Desert has a sword. [[I Call It Vera|He calls it Vera.]]
** ''[[PlayStation 2|"Live in your world, Get eaten by a vampire bearog in mine."]]''
** The secret word for entering Phorofor is "ad ro un ta en", which is made up of syllables from "En taro adun". This happens to be from the Protoss race in [[
*** Phorofor itself is a pronounciation of 404, which means a dead link.
**** City of the dead indeed.
Line 157:
* [[Sword and Sorcerer]]: Rohane and Mipsy, until Talinia joins their team.
** Some players are inclined to believe that Rohane and Mipsy are also a [[Battle Couple]].
* [[Super
* [[Take Your Time]]: Really.
* [[Temple of Doom]]: Temple of the Sky and the unnamed Ruined Temple. There are no booby traps (thankfully), but these places are often inhabited by bosses and of course, the monsters.
* [[True Final Boss]]: King Terask II, the new-and-improved Terask v2.
* [[Wolfpack Boss]]: The Four Faeries. Quite possibly the hardest fight in the game.
== ''Neoquest 3D'' ==
* [[Canon Discontinuity]]: Is Neoquest 3-D really part of the series?
* [[Interactive Fiction]]: Unlike the other two, 3D is completely text-based.
