A science fantasy roleplaying game set in the far distant future, where humanity lives amid the remnants of eight great civilizations that have risen and fallen. This new world is filled with remnants of all the former worlds: bits of nanotechnology, the dataweb threaded among still-orbiting satellites, bio-engineered creatures, and myriad strange and wondrous devices. These remnants have become known as the numenera.

A multi-genre RPG designed to simulate the action of anime and manga. The title alludes to the common anime drawing style of characters with huge, expressive eyes and comparatively small mouths. BESM uses a point-based character creation system. Characters are evaluated based on three "Stats", against which all action checks are made. These are supplemented by Attributes, which give the characters unique abilities. |

A dark roleplaying game of the far future, in a ruined galaxy ruled by AIs and robots, where humans scamper to piece together whatever they can to survive. Think "Terminator" but with starships and cyber gear.

A heartwarming, non-violent role-playing game that’s great fun for all ages. It takes place in a small town in rural Japan, and players take on the role of henge (pronounced hen-gay, like a chicken that’s happy), animals with just a little magical power, including the ability to temporarily take human form. They do not fight great battles or unearth valuable treasures though; Golden Sky Stories adventures are all about helping others and becoming friends. |

Enter the era of ice-age hunters! Select a Tribal Totem, Master Tribal Magic, Wander the Two Worlds, and Quest For Artifacts of Power For Your Tribe.
In true primitive fashion, Task Resolution is determined by using STONES: Orange stones are called Sunstones; grey stones are Earthstones. You can use glass beads, ornamental pebbles, whatever you can find. You'll need maybe ten of one colour and ten of another, put them in a bag and you're ready to go.

The 20th Anniversary edition of one of the world's first free RPGs (still free, always and forever). For some, Risus is a handy “emergency†RPG for spur-of-the-moment one-shots and rapid character creation. For others, it’s a reliable campaign system supporting years of play. For others still, it’s a strange little pamphlet with stick figures. No matter what you think it is, there's no wrong way to play.
