The purpose of the article is to present the effect of narrative RPGs on the subconscious part of the psyche and on its relationship with consciousness. In accordance with Carl Gustav Jung's theory these two aspects are pivotal elements governing the development of a person's psyche, which in analytical psychology is called the individuation process. In order to demonstrate the potential influence of narrative RPGs on this matter we will first describe Sigmund Freud's and Carl Gustav Jung's theories of the subconscious, then we will describe the progress of the individuation process and then we will finally discuss the way RPGs can - in an advantageous or destructive way - influence that process through activating elements of the subconscious.
