Which RPG Systems Are Supported on Myth-Weavers?

Myth-Weavers hosts active play-by-post games across 9 systems, but the system list is less useful than it first appears: the largest single category is "Other" with 44 of the 50+ active games. If you are looking for a specific published ruleset, the counts below tell you how thin most of those categories currently are.

Active games by system

The site describes itself as hosting "more than 50 active games across 9 systems." The table accounts for 55 games, so the totals are consistent with that claim.

What the "Other" category means for you

"Other" is not a system — it is a catch-all. With 44 games, it dominates the platform. That has two practical consequences:

• If you want a mainstream published system, you are competing for a small number of tables. D&D 5e, Call of Cthulhu, and Blades in the Dark have 2 games each; Pathfinder 1e, 13th Age, Exalted 3e, and D&D 5.5e have 1 each.
• If you are open to homebrew or less common systems, the "Other" category is where most of the activity is. You will need to read individual recruitment posts to find out what ruleset each game actually uses.

Systems with games currently recruiting

Recruitment is a better signal than raw game count, because a system with active games but no open seats is not somewhere you can join today. The games listed as looking for players are:

• Call of Cthulhu — "Hollow Season," described as frontier horror with investigation, three seats open, run by GM AshfallGM.
• Blades in the Dark — "Emberwatch Rises," a salvage crew premise, two posts a week, and explicitly "no system mastery required," run by GM Kestrelwind.
• Other — several recruitment listings, including "StartDate sweep," "Notif Fixture Keep," and "Browser Fixture Keep."

That gives you one concrete Call of Cthulhu option and one concrete Blades in the Dark option, plus the Other listings. No D&D, Pathfinder, 13th Age, or Exalted game appears in the recruiting list at the time of this data.

How to choose a system here

• Pick Call of Cthulhu or Blades in the Dark if you want a named system and a currently open table. The Blades listing is the more explicit about commitment level (two posts a week) and about not requiring rules expertise.
• Pick "Other" if you are flexible on system and want the widest choice. Expect to read each recruitment thread to learn the actual ruleset and posting pace.
• Avoid assuming a system is available just because it appears in the count. A single active game with no open seats means you cannot join it right now.

Checking current availability
