If it’s a PbtA please expand on your system of choice!
I’ll start:
I really enjoyed Sexy Battle Wizards, but I think The Witch is Dead speaks to me more. I like player characters just being little weak dudes and struggling against normal stuff. (both of these are free by grant howitt and 1 page of rules)
I also enjoyed rude detectives, it has a surprisingly juicy dice system for a game that’s just 4-5 pages. It’s themed around child detective stories.
PbtA I like magpies stuff, like avatar and root, but my favorite until now was Fellowship 2e I think. Just so extremely versatile, and it’s a joy to give a lot of narrative control to players.
Last one is kinda cheating: my current favorite game is rules light within it’s genre. 13th Age is the easiest ‘dnd’ I’ve ever seen, and the amount of dumb rules and bookkeeping it prunes has reinvigorated 20f games for me! But compared to other games, it’s still a bunch of rules of course.
I played starforged, I think that’s the same in space. Been meaning to read and run it ever since but you know how it is…
Especially the solo play the intrigues me.
I steal from the roll tables for that for the games though hehe.
Base ironsworn is free BTW as far as I know, for anyone reading
What mode did you use for Starforged: GM, Solo, or Coop? How did it go? Did it actually feel like sci-fi?
As I wrote in a comment above, we’re playing Ironsworn and I’m intrigued to try Starforged next.
