Index Card RPG Master Edition provides light-prep GMs a multi-genre system robust enough to last for long campaign play but designed to be run one session at a time.

Halloween is on the way and a great way to enjoy the holiday is to run an adventure or two of horror. Elemental (review) is a universal RPG system that does horror well. JM agreed to talk to me again about horror adventure options and running horror using Elemental.
The Temple of Elemental Evil is back in a blast from the past while Brancalonia is a brand new low fantasy modified D&D setting.

Soulbound—Champions of Order expands the Soulbound core rulebook with new archetypes, talents, miracles, spells, endeavours, and equipment. It also offers a deeper dive into the world of Soulbound with details to flesh out player characters and connect them more strongly to the world and to each other.
Cocaine & Alligators is why I keep searching for RPGs each week. Yeah, the supplement for Troika!, what did you think I meant? Gems like this one keep me sane. And so many other great RPGs this week.
