* ''VideoGame/{{Diablo}} 1'' and ''VideoGame/DiabloII''.

** ''VideoGame/SonicChronicles'' is another ''Franchise/{{Sonic|TheHedgehog}}'' game from this viewpoint.

* ''VideoGame/{{Whizz}}''

* ''Marvin's Maze'' (maze game by SNK superficially similar to PacMan)

Of course, in many cases in video games, the projection is not actually isometric in the mathematical sense, because a 26.57° slope is much easier to draw on square pixels than a 30° slope [[note]]a right angle triangle where one acute angle is 26.57° has a corresponding side whose length is exactly half of the length of the other side[[/note]]. But that would be nitpicking, so these games are called "isometric" anyway. The term can also refer to the vastly different Trimetric Projection (such as in ''VideoGame/{{Fallout|1}}'' and VideoGame/{{Fallout 2}} or ''VideoGame/SimCity 4''), where ''all three'' angles are different.

* ''[[VideoGame/PacMan Pac-Mania]]'', sort of. Only the vertical axes are this, the horizontal ones are straightforward left/right.

* ''VideoGame/GrimDawn''

* ''VideoGame/[[TorchlightII]]

** ''SonicChronicles'' is another ''Franchise/{{Sonic|TheHedgehog}}'' game from this viewpoint.

* ''Solstice: The Quest for the Staff of Demnos'' and its sequel ''Equinox''.

* ''Märchen Maze'' (uses the "trimetric" projection variant, except in the PCEngine version)

* ''VideoGame/ReturnOfTheJedi'' (arcade game by {{Atari}} based on the movie)

* ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsChainOfMemories'' (the GameBoyAdvance version, not the UsefulNotes/{{PS2}} remake)

* ''VideoGame/SuperRobotWars'' [[note]]Only some of them, and none of the original-timeline games. Hardware power seems to be the deciding factor: The UsefulNotes/PlayStation games use Isometric, while the GameBoyAdvance games use a top-down perspective, for example.[[/note]]

* ''VideoGame/HarvestMoonBackToNature'' (though its GameBoyAdvance version, ''(More) Friends of Mineral Town'' uses a standard top-down perspective)

* ''VideoGame/DesertStrike'' (and by extension, the rest of the ''Strike'' series)

* ''VideoGame/ReturnOfTheJedi'' (arcade game by {{Atari}} based on the movie)

* ''Enduro Racer'' (UsefulNotes/SegaMasterSystem version only)

From TheOtherWiki: Isometric projection is a form of graphical projection, more specifically, a form of axonometric projection. It is a method of visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions, in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angles between any two of them are 120 degrees.
