Hi! I am interested in getting into roleplaying games again, with my adult kids, after not really playing since high school in the late1980s :)

The games that I used to play included DnD, warhammer rolepay, Gamma world, Traveller, MERP, Paranoia, and others that I can't think of right now. As I am currently living in Sweden and like the look of Free League games, I would like to hear people's thoughts on their games.

Because Gamma World has a place in my heart, I am interested in Mutant. But Mörk Borg also looks interesting, and I am also a LOTR nerd.

Also, because we would play online, I would prefer games that have good resources for that.

Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!

I love TTRPGs. I love crunchy TTRPGs. I love Fantasy TTRPGs.

However, I do not like Spellcasters.

Sure, magic is really cool, but I've always been more of a "Warrior of Legend with its Mythical Sword" kind of person than a "The Great Wise Wizard of the Grand Tower". Those are still valid, but I'm looking for something more low to the ground.

I'm not looking necessarily for a simulationist approach, I can very much accept movie/game logic if that means cooler action, but at the same time it would be a big waste to go for Low Fantasy without a bit more realism than your tipical Hig Fantasy affair

I was looking for a TTRPG system where a high level character can be realistically be threatened by a group of guards.

Like, obviously he can dispatch them if he's good enough in combat, but for example in DND there is no way a level 10 character can be threatened by level 1 enemies. I'm looking for a game system where going into battle can be dangerous even against basic soldiers, and I don't necessarily need to add exceptional enemies to make fights interesting.

Im reading the rules for the soon-to-release game Tales From Elsewhere - Clockworld and I just loved this small section in the introduction and its play on Rule of Cool. :)

edit: I realize I have not properly contextualized this game/passage. Sorry. So this game is a horror survival in the weird west. It is meant to be somewhat scary and tense and the art and basic lore (which ive only read a little) set the stage well for this passage feeling right at home. I also just enjoyed the wordplay :)

Long time player and game master here, but Ive recently been on the hunt for a new game system to scratch that itch for narrative play like PbtA and exploration like OSR.

I stumbled across The Land of Eem, but I can barely find any reviews or talk about it. My first impression after reading the SRD is that while this game looks a little strange, the mechanics seem pretty good.

Can anyone share their experience with this game before I pick it up?

Otherwise, are there other suggestions for a narrative first, fantasy game system?

With One Page RPG Jam 2026 kicking off on Monday, thought I'd list down my favourite entries from previous iterations of the Jam.

Hi guys. Currently I'm playing Warhammer Fantasy 4ED with my cousins. We're thinking on playing Cyberpunk next but the problem is I've heard that both CP Red and 2020 are great

Can you tell me the difference between them, and which one would be more fun to play as a Warhammer fan?

My girlfriend loves mafia movies, so I recently decided to run a Fate Core mafia investigation one-shot for her and some friends.

I've been GMing for about 5–6 years. I've run a couple of medium-length campaigns, many one-shots, mostly D&D, plus some more narrative games like Girl Underground and Ten Candles.

The problem is that, once planning, I realized my ABC doesn't work here: No dungeons, no encounters, no cute monsters, etc... And I can't rely on the players to create most of the story as I would in a more narrative game.

So... how do you prep investigation one-shots? Any tips, advice, or resources you'd recommend?

So I’m a massive one piece fan and have been wanting to bring this to my table for awhile. I found this roleplaying game called One Piece: Age of Pirates which is just what I want but does not cover enemies or stuff. Does anyone know where to find more?

This week's RPG is Vaults of Vaarn!

Have you played it? Have you run/GM'd it? How did it go?

What's your favourite memory from the game?

What's the best thing about the game?

What's the worst? How would you improve it?
