(...need to linkify...short descriptions?)
- Star Cadets A one page sci-fi RPG.
- Dungeon Squad A four page dungeon-style RPG.
- Barbarians of Lemuria
- The Ladder
- Mazes & Minotaurs
- Loreweaver’s 3dRPG Similar to The Fantasy Trip.
- Pace An interesting diceless resolution mechanic.
- Risus A humorous RPG. Some people use it for serious games, but I have doubts it would work for me for a serious game.
- Fudge Many people look on Fudge as a toolbox to build an RPG out of. Fudge is OK with being that. After reading a lot of the author's stuff, though, I see it more as a game that says you don't need the stuff it leaves out.
- The French Flash Gordon game? Bouchard’s Flash Gordon RPG
- Broomstix A Harry Potter RPG.
- Star Frontiers
- Marvel Super Heroes
- Ars Magica 4th edition
- Dragon Warriors A game very similar to classic D&D, but different enough to be interesting in its own right.
- Pokéthulhu Mix Pokémon with Mythos creatures!
