The Unspeakable Oath is cool if you want some Cthulhu gaming goodness.

Otherwise, what are you looking for?

I think A Dirty World is $10. It is a pretty slim folio but I am fond of that game.

A Dirty World is a good idea!  I will look at that.  And I already get the Unspeakable Oath, otherwise that is something I would definitely consider.

My favorite systems are GUMSHOE, CoC/BRP, and I'm just starting to get into FATE.  The only system I am not into is D20/DnD/Pathfinder.  . . etc.  But I will honestly give anything a shot.  I think a game like Cavemaster looks interesting, but I don't know if it is something I will play enough to justify the purchase.

Other games I have:  Slasher Flick, Don't Rest Your Head, Mutants and Masterminds, Hackmaster 5e. . . and I'm sure I have games I don't even know about.  I tend to pick up bundle deals.

I guess the main products I am looking for are small-press games that are just fun.  Or anything that is fun.  I like fun.  Fun is fun.

There are a ton of great adventures for GUMSHOE/Trail of Cthulhu so browse through the Pelgrane Press section if you need a great one shot scenario. Too many to list here actually.

Caleb is going to start running Dungeon World soon, so you might check that out.

Any one or two scenarios you like the most?  I listened to the AP of Invasive Procedures, and I thought it was a great scenario, but a little to close to being railroady for me.  At least, with my style of GMing, I don't think I would run it as well as I would like.

Dungeon World sounds cool.  And it is exactly $10!  I will look more into that.

Alright, I picked up Dungeon World.  I read through the preview and thought it was right up my alley. 

It also helped that a friend of mine had a copy of A Dirty World that I could borrow. . .so yeah.  There's that.

Thanks for the recommendations!  Are Caleb's Dungeon World scenarios being recorded for RPPR?
