| - Открытая игровая лицензия (англ. Open Game License, OGL) — это свободная лицензия, с помощью которой игроделы дают разрешение коллегам по хобби или профессии изменять, копировать и распространять часть своих игр — прежде всего игромеханику. В обмен на это, использующие открытую игровую лицензию обязаны свои копии и производные продукты распространять по такому же соглашению. Игроделы и издатели, использующие открытую игровую лицензию, называются «открытым игровым движением» (англ. open gaming movement). OGL делит содержимое игры явным образом на две категории:
* Открытый игровой материал (англ. Open Game Content, OGC)
* Особенности продукта (англ. Product Identity, PI) Использование особенностей продукта возможно в одном и только одном случае: когда автор игры работает в той же компании, которая произвела продукт, в котором эти особенности были введены, и которая обладает на них всеми правами. Использование же открытого игрового материала разрешается кому угодно, в любом виде, в любой стране, без дополнительной платы и без прочих подобных ограничений, но без изменения указанного авторства и с полным повторением параграфа 15 лицензии, содержащего список авторских прав. Разумеется, при большом желании можно обратиться в компанию, обладающую правами на особенности продукта, и заключить с ними отдельный договор, но сама открытая игровая лицензия этого не позволяет. Открытая игровая лицензия первоначально была использована компанией Wizards of the Coast в 2000 году при выпуске ими «System Reference Document» (SRD) как свободно распространяемого движка Dungeons & Dragons 3, по инициативе вице-президента компании, Райана Дэнси. С тех пор она используется практически во всех играх по системе d20, но не ограничивается только ими. Одним из жёстко критикуемых сообществом шагов WotC по установлению контроля над Dungeons & Dragons 4 был отказ в июле 2008 года от OGL в пользу более строгой Game System License (GSL), позволявшей сторонним игроделам заявлять о совместимости их продуктов с четвёртой редакцией. Несмотря на несовместимость двух лицензий, OGL, как и многие другие свободные лицензии, неотчуждаема, и продолжает широко использоваться. В январе 2016 правила пятой редакции были возвращены к OGL.

- The Open Game License is an open license created by Wizards of the Coast to support its d20 line of role-playing games, in particular the third edition of Dungeons and Dragons. A license for a document is generally considered "open" if it allows for the redistribution and modification of the document without further permission from the original creator. This is a concept that was first introduced for the source code for software, and the GNU license is, perhaps, the most well-known example. In addition to the OGL, Wizards of the Coast created a more restrictive d20 license. The d20 license is more restrictive than the OGL and requires explicit approval from Wizards of the Coast before publication of a product using that license. The original justification for the open game license was to promote a more unified role-playing-game community and market. It is widely believed that it was extremely successful in this regard. It is also believed that this led to much of the continued success of Dungeons and Dragons 3.0 and 3.5. Wizards of the Coast has released the fourth edition of Dungeons and Dragons under the Game System License, a license significantly different to the OGL.
