10. The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Muchausen

Out of print, this game is a game of oneupmanship as players try to tell the tallest tales. An absolute riot to play with a creative group of improvisers. The gamification comes in the form of a currency that is used to bid and force actions.

9. Rockalypse

Really neat use of the FATE system where conflict is resolved with a battle of the bands. Over the top, ridiculous fun.

8. Eternal Contenders

A sequel/reimplementation of Contenders, a game that emulates boxing dramas. Eternal Contenders swaps the boxing ring for a coliseum and players are warriors fighting for glory. It uses a deck of cards for resolution.

7. Diaspora

Most notable for its setting creation, in which the players create a set of interconnected star systems. Think of it as a FATE take on Traveller in some ways.

6. Star Trek Adventures

Beam me up, Scotty! Modiphius has done a good job with their licensed games and changing the system to suit the properties. STA is my favorite implementation. It makes being an engineer just as interesting as 3:16 makes being a marine.

5. 13th Age Second Edition

13th Age takes the power fantasy of D&D 4e and turns it up to 11 while adding meaningful relationships with the god-like icons of the world. This is the game I want to play when I listen to power metal. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

4. Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game by West End Games

The original licensed Star Wars game. A true classic. Hugely formative for my experience with RPGs. I'm in a PbP Discord game right now.

3. 3:16 Carnage Amongst the Stars

What if Paul Verhoeven's take on Starship Troopers was actually good satire? That's this game. 3:16 is a low prep, fast playing game where you play human troopers wiping out aliens and are confronted with the idea we may be evil

2. Spectaculars

I love superhero games and Spectaculars does a great job with the genre. Really neat system where the more powers you have, the less flexible your character is. Character roles are interchangeable and have party effects. Just a delight. scratchpadpublishing.com/spectaculars

First up is my favorite game I’ve never played: Swashbucklers of the 7 Skies.

OMG! This game is so entirely my shit. High fantasy. Airships. Sword duels. Magic. A system where WHO your character is defines what they can do mechanically. I would love to play a campaign.

Honestly, people calling creators the "petite bourgeoisie" makes me want to snap.

We're working folk. And we work really hard. For next to nothing.

We're not lounging around eating bonbons. We're trying to figure out how we're going to be able to pay rent next month.
