We have been dipping our toes into Vaesen. My old favourite is ARS Magica. Also, just picked up Liminal, which I'm excited about. Absolutely gorgeous art.

Own Fantasy Age, but haven't tried it yet. Too many games...

Vaesen looks interesting. Did you like it? I played Coriolis which has the same core system.

Yes, it's easy to play, and a nice break from Medieval fantasy. I love folklore and fae, so that's been engaging for me. I think I'll loosen up the character creation next time, as a few players wanted choices they couldn't have. We wanted to try running it RAW first though, before tinkering.

It could be easily adapted to different time periods and moods too, which will give it longevity. This one has great art too, which sets the mood. Ended up ordering the Vaesen book the game is inspired by. Postage from Sweden to Canada wasn't cheap, but don't care. Lot of the art is duplicated, of course, but don't care! I'm happy having both books. 😊
 

I've been playing GURPS for decades, most recently in its incarnation as the Dungeon Fantasy RPG. I've got a number of DFRPG games going in parallel with different players.

Recently picked up and played through the Labyrinth RPG with my family. We had a great time with that. Did a session of Lasers and Feelings too. Edit: though I suppose that isn't necessarily fantasy.

I think that's it for most definitions of "current."

We played through Labyrinth too. Lots of fun and a great family game.

How non-D&D does it need to be? I play a lot of OSR-adjacent stuff like Black Hack 2E, Worlds Without Number, and Vagabonds of Dyfed. I only really play D&D with my kids at this point, because that's what they know how to play.
If it has a d20 roll over target number D&D inspired system it doesn't qualify as non-D&D.
