GURPS

SAKE is a traditional tabletop roleplaying game with a touch of strategy game. It is a crunchy, modular, d20 point-buy game set in an early-modern fantasy world, with detailed systems for domain-building and overseas trading. Description In SAKE, you play the ruler of a domain, a merchant prince, a pirate lord or start as an adventurer with the goal of rising to power. You delve into dungeons, explore pockets of the Otherworld to find treasures, make pacts with fickle gods, study dangerous magic, scheme to assassinate rivals, trade to gather resources and raise an army to fight wars. SAKE is a full point buy system, which means all character development happens by buying skills and abilities using EXP gained from your character's personality traits and events during gameplay. SAKE is designed to take place in an early modern (fantasy) world, with muskets and plate armour, cannons and galleys, rising capitalism and waning feudalism. With magic and gods mixed in. The game's rules support more serious types of campaigns, like balancing between different political interest groups when playing domain ruler, or deciding how far one is ready to go when meddling with gods or magic for power that could save their party and/or domain. SAKE comes with its own world – the Asteanic World – but it is by no means exclusive to it. It can be used to play in other early modern fantasy worlds, or even in Earth's similar historical period.

Cyberpunk RED is the fourth edition of the a tabletop role-playing game system published by R. Talsorian Games in 2020. The story takes place in the near-future of 2045 following the events of the Fourth Corporate War. The period for the game's storyline is named the "Time of the Red" due to atmospheric pollution. The system it directly evolved from is Cyberpunk 2020 Description Players in the game are referred to as "Edgerunners". They are mercenaries, criminals, and specialists living in the metropolis of Night City. The games focus on completing jobs and surviving in a megacorporations and street gangs controlled society. As the global supply chain has collapsed, resources are scarce and players must often rely on black-market brokers, known as Fixers, to find their equipment, weapons, and armor. Cybernetic body modifications are a recurring topic in the game, with the emphasis on the risks of enhancing one's body and mind with. System Overview & Key Features Core Dice Mechanic (Interlock System) The game uses a Interlock System. An action's success is determined with a a ten-sided die (d10) and adding the relevant Statistic and Skill rating. The total is compared against a Difficulty Value (DV). Lifepath Generation When creating a character, the player can either roll or manually pick various options from the "Lifepath" tables. The choices made will define the character's cultural background, their family history, romantic relationships, and potential enemies. This is a built-in method of creating an immersive and entangled character backstory. Roles and Special Abilities Characters are defined by their "Role," which is a the game's class system. Players have a choice between ten different roles: Solo (combat specialist), Netrunner (hacker), and Medtech (doctor). Every role has their unique Special Ability which gives them unique gameplay mechanics. Combat and Armor Combat in Cyberpunk RED relies heavily on their body armor rather than high hit point totals. If an attack successfully penetrates a character's armor, the armor's defensive rating is permanently lowered by one point. This mechanic makes extended combat encounters dangerous and forces players to consider alternative approaches. Netrunning The game's hacking rules require Netrunners to be physically close to the computer systems they want to breach. In the setting, the global internet was destroyed, meaning remote hacking is no longer possible. Cyberware and Humanity Players can install cybernetic implants into their characters to gain new abilities or improve their stats. Every implant reduces a character's Humanity, which subsequently lowers their Empathy . If a character's Humanity reaches zero, they develop a condition called Cyberpsychosis. This generally results in the player permanently losing control of their character and no longer being able to play them.

Shadowrun is a science fantasy tabletop role-playing game set in an alternate future in which cybernetics, magic and fantasy creatures co-exist. The game has gone through multiple variations and versions, since its first release in 1989, the latest "Sixth World" game system was published in 2019, by Catalyst Game Labs. It combines genres of cyberpunk, urban fantasy, and crime, with occasional elements of conspiracy, horror, and detective fiction. The system it directly evolved from is Shadowrun 5th Edition Description Shadowrun takes place several decades in the future (2050 in the first edition, currently 2088). The end of the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar ushered in the "Sixth World" with once-mythological beings (e.g. dragons) appearing and forms of magic suddenly emerging. Large numbers of humans have "Goblinized" into orks and trolls, while many human children are born as elves, dwarves, and even more exotic creatures. The Shadowrun world is cross-genre, incorporating elements of both cyberpunk and urban fantasy. Unlike in a purely cyberpunk game, in the Shadowrun world, magic exists and has "worked" since 2011. System Overview & Key Features The d6 Dice Pool The core resolution engine uses a massive pool of six sided dice. To attempt a test, a player adds their relevant Attribute and Skill together, then rolls that many dice. Every 5 or 6 rolled counts as a "hit" and players need to roll a certain number of hits to succeed. The Edge System In the Sixth World edition, Edge is a fluid tactical resource. Instead of tracking dozens of tiny situational modifiers, characters earn Edge points during a fight by having a superior position, better gear, or catching the enemy off guard. These points are spent immediately for rerolls or special combat actions. The Three Worlds The game takes place across three distinct layers of reality. Physical combat happens in meatspace, hackers project their consciousness into the virtual reality of the Matrix, and mages project their spirits into the magical Astral Plane. A well balanced team must handle threats from all three directions at once. Magic and Drain Spellcasters do not use spell slots. Instead, they can cast spells as often as they like, but channeling arcane energy takes a physical toll. Every time a spell is cast, the mage must resist "Drain" which can cause severe stun or physical damage if they are not careful.

Forge Steel is a community-developed, locally-hosted web application and digital utility designed for Draw Steel, the cinematic fantasy tabletop role-playing game created by MCDM Productions. Developed by independent community members during the game's playtest phase, the application functions as a lightweight encounter builder and combat manager. It is specifically built to assist Directors in organizing game data and tracking real-time combat statistics during a session. Description Forge Steel serves as a digital toolkit for preparing and executing combat encounters in Draw Steel. In contrast to cloud-based alternatives, Forge Steel relies on local browser storage. This means the application does not require users to create an account or rely on external servers to save their data. All created encounters, customized monsters, and campaign notes are stored directly within the cache of the user's web browser. This architecture prioritizes data privacy, offline accessibility, and fast load times, though it requires manual file exporting to transfer data between different devices. System Overview & Key Features Local Storage Architecture The application operates entirely within the user's web browser without communicating with a backend database for everyday use. Because it utilizes local storage, no login credentials are required. This ensures the tool remains highly responsive and can continue to function even if the user loses their internet connection during a game session. Encounter Construction Directors can use the tool to design combat encounters by selecting monsters from an integrated database. The application automatically calculates the total Encounter Value, allowing the Director to balance the difficulty of the fight against the level and size of the player character party. Active Combat Tracking During gameplay, Forge Steel provides a dashboard to manage the flow of combat. It tracks essential Draw Steel mechanics, including monster Stamina, current initiative groups, temporary status effects, and the accumulation of Villain Power. This centralized view reduces the amount of physical bookkeeping required by the Director. Integrated Bestiary The application includes a searchable bestiary containing the official monsters released during the Draw Steel playtest and early access periods. Directors can quickly filter these creatures by role, level, or faction, and view their complete stat blocks, abilities, and passives directly within the app. Import and Export Functionality To mitigate the limitations of local-only storage, Forge Steel includes manual data management tools. Users can export their prepared encounters, custom bestiaries, and campaign data as JSON files. These files can then be saved as backups or imported into Forge Steel on a different computer or browser, allowing for manual cross-device syncing. Homebrew Integration Directors have the ability to manually input and modify monster statistics. This allows users to create custom adversaries or tweak existing official monsters to fit their specific campaign needs. These custom entries are saved locally alongside the official bestiary.

TableForge is an AI-powered virtual tabletop that runs your Dungeons & Dragons 5e games for you. Create a character, gather your party, and play through a living fantasy world guided by an AI Dungeon Master that narrates the story, runs combat, and reacts to whatever you decide to do. Every adventure generates its own characters, locations, encounters, and battle maps, so you can go from "let's play tonight" to actually playing in a few minutes. No DM, no prep, no scheduling marathon. /images/general-media/1785090300_1dWltGXR.png Full description TableForge started with a familiar problem: a group of friends who wanted to play D&D together but lived in different cities and could never get their calendars to line up. No regular DM, no reliable session night, just a game everyone wanted to play and no practical way to play it. TableForge is built for exactly that situation, whether you're a full party, two friends grabbing an hour, or one person who wants to disappear into a story alone. You create a character, start (or join) a campaign, and play in natural language. The AI Dungeon Master sets the scene, voices the NPCs, calls for rolls, runs encounters, and remembers what you've done, then responds to what you actually try, not just the path it expected. Talk your way past the guard, torch the bridge, befriend the monster you were sent to kill: the world reacts. That player-driven freedom is the point. The AI handles worldbuilding, encounter generation, and narration so the discovery, improvisation, and agency that make tabletop roleplaying worth it stay firmly in your hands. Under the hood, narration and rules are kept separate. A dedicated rules engine enforces 5e mechanics (AC and DCs, initiative, conditions, hit points, death saves) while the AI focuses on story and table feel. That split is why the DM can stay loose and responsive without losing track of your HP or fudging the math: the numbers are handled, so the storytelling stays free. Whether you want a one-shot, a months-long campaign, solo play, or a co-op night with friends scattered across time zones, TableForge runs in your browser (mobile, too!) and is ready whenever you are. /images/general-media/1785090304_bDgGCr3B.png Features AI Dungeon Master Runs the whole DM role: narrates scenes, voices NPCs, sets difficulty, calls for rolls, and resolves the action. It keeps the game moving, so a session feels like playing with a DM rather than filling out a form. Player-driven story The DM responds to whatever you actually try, and your choices carry forward as the campaign unfolds. The generation builds the world; you decide where the story goes. Real 5e rules, enforced A dedicated rules engine handles the mechanics (the d20 system, initiative, conditions, HP, death saves) instead of leaving them to the AI. Every roll is shown openly, so you can trust the result. Tactical combat and battle maps Fights generate a battle map and run by the book, with encounters tuned to your party. The mechanical state stays visible so you always know where everyone stands. Dynamic adventures and campaigns Every quest generates its own premise, locations, NPCs, and encounters. Campaigns persist across sessions, from quick one-shots to months-long stories as you climb toward level 20. Character creation and progression Build a full 5e hero (species, class, abilities, skills, gear) on a sheet that feels thematic, not like a spreadsheet. Level up and your features, HP, and inventory update as you go. Generated scene illustrations Key moments and locations are illustrated automatically, giving each scene a visual anchor instead of pure description. It does a lot for immersion in solo and remote play. Solo or multiplayer co-op Play solo for a focused story, or invite friends to share a campaign. Built for groups who can't get everyone together at the same time. No prep, play in your browser Nothing to install or prepare. Sign in with Google or Discord, make a character, and start playing in minutes from any browser or on your smartphone. Blog TableForge's blog has resources for players interested in using AI as a tool for their adventures: getting the most out of an AI DM, running solo and remote games, and notes on how the platform works.
