Me on the way to do something funny...
27) Apocalypse World
I am going to be real, I forgot I got this _digital_ book on drivethru rpg, and I am very happy I do. I played it once a while back, and been thinking of getting it, well seems I got it digitally. Heck yeah.

26) The Return of the Lazy Dungeon Master
Even more tips and tricks on preparing less for your TTRPG games.
It is a bit of a standalone book, and you wouldn't need the prior one, but hey, it's pretty cool, lol.

25) Extreme Dungeon Mastery
I can't really say much about this book, as it was originally gifted to me about 5 months ago from someone who got out of the hobby for some amount of health reasons and such. I still haven't cracked it open yet. But it's there, on my book shelf.

24 ) Super Console
This is a great got that I got on DrivethruRPG forever and a day ago. Super Console RPG is a ttrpg that tries to allow you to play a character from a console rpg, like in the days of the Sony PlayStation, Nintendo NES and SNES and Sega Genesis. It's very fun.

23) Rocket Age
Got this from a local college game convention I ran, by one of the people that was there. I also have not ran it yet, but been sitting on my shelf, and a flip through it once in a while. One day, I may actually put more mental effort in running a game with it.

Sorry, real life got in a way from me continuing this.
22) Zombie World
I have not actually got to open this up and give it a try yet. But I got this a few Gencon's ago, and just loved the idea of a card-based TTRPG (based on the game I was already working on development on).

21) Shadowrun (specifically 5th edition)
As someone who calls himself a Technomancer, it would be a shame if I didn't have shadowrun I think. I know that the editions are constantly debated on which one is the best one; I was first introduced with 5th edition, and had to support it.

20) Grimtooth's Ultimate Traps Collection
I once asked for books that could help me in the process, and Grimtooth's traps was suggested. Years later, luckily, this ultimate collection existed (in pdf form) and I snatched it up.

19 ) Starfinder 2e
I have the playtest of Starfinder 2e, just like I do with pathfinder 2e. And sometime soon, I will have the core books for starfinder as they come out. While I don't see eye-to-eye with all the things in it, I think it is really good for what it's trying to do.

18) Pathfinder 2e
A lot of my books are currently for this system. I got the playtest, the premaster, and the remaster. I have ran a few games of it, from experience players to inexperienced. My home campaign is currently playing with this ruleset, and one day I may get to play a Magus again xD

17 ) D&D 5e
I might as well include the one I know lots of people will probably also have. I do have a copy (ok, two copies) as when it came out, I ran a game with 30+ players and a few extra GMs, in a rpg club wide game. I haven't touched it in years now.

16 ) Inspectres
A long while ago, I was asked to run a Scooby Doo inspired game (with some financial compensation), and I went on the hunt for a system that could help handle that. And well, I found Inspectres, and it was perfect. The game was a blast, and I think about it a lot.

15) The Lazy Dungeon Master
I still have lots of other TTRPG systems to share, but figured at 15, we might start mixing in a few non systems in.
If you run or want to run games, you should give this book a read. I think there is some good advice, though remember it's only one approach.

14) Blade Runner
Truth be told, I don't know much about the blade runner setting or anything, but I seen this when I picked up Vaesen, and knew I had friends who like it. Figured I could read it, learn something from it, or if inspired run it. I have not opened it yet...

Nordic Horror RPG, but also like a more modern set game? Call me curious. I still haven't finished reading this one, but I got it thanks to a podcast I was listening to introducing it to me.

12) Microscope
The most fucking wild game I got on here. Fractal role playing, with no focus on your own characters is just so fun. I got it mostly to analyze, but have loved it since I read it. I need to run it again sometime..

11 ) Gurps (4th Edition)
I been a big fan of GURPs and SJ games for almost as long as I known they have existed. I even recall using this version of GURPs to create a TTRPG rosetta stone, to migrate mechanics from different things, as a budding designer.

10 ) Cortex Prime
Cortex, the base system for marvel heroics, has gone many iterations. Cortex prime is the most recent one, and one that I been vibing with pretty well. I also ran a one shot on a stream for Game Master Monday once, it was very fun!

9) Star Wars Saga Edition
So, the first TTRPG I ever got to play in, not just read and fantasize about was Star Wars, using either the Saga Edition Rules (might have been the Revised though, tbf).
I bought this mostly as a keepsake, as while I think it's a fun game, I have no want to run it today.

8) Act Ten
I got this on a whim, as a friend of mine got it to run a anime game, and I wanted to show my support of playing / experiencing it.
I really liked it, though the game we did of it didn't really kick off. No fault of the system though.

7) Modern Age
This isn't as happy of a message that it could be. Like, don't get me wrong, I love the AGE system, and think Green Ronin did well with the priors, but there is a lot that made me sad about it. I love classless systems, but man that wasn't what I wanted from this.

6) Fantasy Age
I do have a copy of fantasy age, given that I loved Dragon Age so much, and thought that it really shined when it stepped away from the dark world of Dragon Age as a system to handle the setting.

5) Monster of the Week
I absolutely love this game, though any game set in a modern world with fantasy elements is going to do well. While I really love the narrative focus, it isn't something I have ran much, nor do I think I would, as lots of games I'd try to run with this, I could in NovArchaic..

4) Marvel Heroic Roleplaying
One of the best systems when you want to play a super, though it does focus on Marvel heroes. You can easily hack a system to create custom heroes, and feel very epic.
My friends and I ran lots of huge games, even a 6 party, 30 player game during a semester in college.
