I like to collect and occasionally play fun, quirky and rules-lite RPGs. I thought I might share some that I've enjoyed reading or playing over the years with this community. I've linked my Google drive collection here. Hopefully this can be a good resource for people looking to play in this community or elsewhere!

Some of my favorites include:
Honey Heist
Lasers and Feelings
Pride and Extreme Prejudice
Adventure Skeletons

I'd love to hear some recommendations for any that I should add!

This is a great resource! I love Honey Heist, I found out about it through the Critical Role oneshots and think it's an excellent little game. Crash Pandas by the same author was also great.

Never listened to CRs Honey Heist episode, but I've GM'd it twice and both times we were dying laughing!

I'm not a huge Critical Role fan these days, I watched back in the old Twitch Geek and Sundry days but felt like it lost its shine somewhere in campaign two.

The oneshots on the other hand are excellent and I feel like they have consistently been some of the best work they've ever done for the channel. Which reminds me, I need to rewatch "The Night Before Critmas"...

Ooh looks fun! Added.

Roll for Shoes is one of my favorites. I haven't used Lasers and Feelings yet, but have been wanting to for awhile. More than likely I'll use it or one if the L&F hacks that are out there for a game here sometime. Trash Pandas and Honey Heist always looked fun, as you can see I'm a fan of GS Howitt, but haven't touch even the tip of the tippy tip of the iceberg when it comes to their (very numerous) output. I think the next one by them I want to try is the noir-inspired one (forget the name). As for the others, I've not heard of them. I'll have to check them all out when I get a chance. Thanks for the collection! I hope you can find the time to run a game on here sometime, too. It'll be nice to see what other people come up with :D

Each separate post is a whole RPG world to itself. Consider each thread like a one-shot RPG. Post a premise, some (preferably quick) rules and supply a prompt and then play! Experiment with weird, quirky, non-traditional RPG designs, do freeform and crazy non-sequitur improv. But above all else: HAVE FUN!
