D&D 5E List of 5E powered RPGs?

Morrus · Jul 2, 2019

I wanted to put together a little list, as it's a conversation which seems to happen to me a lot! Today's launch of The Spy Game on Kickstarter spurred me to do it.

Is there already such a list? I'm talking standalone games (not settings) which use 5E is their core. I tried searching for OGL core rulebooks on DTRPG, but it seems everybody who makes a setting, monster book, or adventure checks the "core rulebook" category there. Off the top of my head:

Adventures in Middle Earth
Esper Genesis (sci-fi)
The Spy Game (espionage)
Stargate (coming later this year)
Monarchies of Mau (cats)
Godbound (greek?)
Pugmire (dogs)

Would Mage Hand Press’s Siegeball count? It’s technically a sport to play with 5e characters that could be inserted into another game, but does have some additional rules elements to make it work.

Currently, 5e settings from independent publishers seem flourishing on Kickstarter. Many of them offer various kinds of variant rules to bring the setting to life.

Among completed projects, published and available as a stand-alone rulebook and supplement, is,

• Entromancy
(genre: cyperpunk fantasy)
Near-future technology in the City of San Francisco, where magic resurfaces.
Maybe compare: Amethyst, Shadowrun.
