The RWP (short for The Rare Witch Project) is a website and forum dedicated to the video game company Rare; specifically, the Banjo-Kazooie series. RWP was founded in April 2000 by Ice Mario and SubDrag, the two discoverers of the hidden codes to unlock items used for Stop 'n' Swop, a cut feature from Banjo-Kazooie, and the finders of a playable Bottles' Revenge, a cut game mode from Banjo-Tooie.

In the beginning, Rare Witch Project was dedicated to Stop 'n' Swop and theories involving it, and was also used as a source of information about the then-upcoming sequel to Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie. Recently, its focus has shifted away from Stop 'n' Swop, and towards Banjo-Kazooie, and Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts, and other video games in general.

The Rare Witch Project is fairly unique in the content it offers. While the main site does features news and general articles relating to Rare games, also offered are GameShark and Action Replay codes for various Rare games, hacked by the duo of Ice Mario and SubDrag, modification tools for said games, such as the GoldenEye 007 Face Mapper, the GoldenEye 007 Setup Editor, the Banjo-Kazooie Texture Tool, and (in a non-Rare instance) the Super Mario 64 DS Save Editor. The site also offers Rare Witch Videos, videos of normally impossible scenarios in Rare games, achieved by hacking and game modification.

The site's name is a pun on "Rare" and "The Blair Witch Project," which the site's logo is also a reference to.
