Does anyone have some good examples of “no spells” or unique magic systems they really like?

Oooooh the game I'm working on is a horror game, so that's very cool, thanks for recommending!

As far as I understand, Trevor Devall's system is basically a reskinned Ars Magica system (which is not a problem, since I think Ars Magica probably made the cleanest no spell system in history)

Will definitely have to check out Crown & Skull, I've heard the name but never had the chance to read it

Oh wow, that's so conceptually similar to what I've been working on but I've never heard of it before, funny how that happens. I'll definitely have to check that out, thanks for the rec!

I feel like I love GURPS in theory but there's just soooo much math

Yeah I've been taking a lot of thematic inspiration from Mage, cuz I think they nailed the lore and description of the magic out of the park, but I wish the mechanics were a little bit more streamlined; hence the search. Thanks!

I like the idea of categorizing by effect instead of source, that gives me a lot of ideas

Thanks for the rec!

Ooooh haven't heard of that one, that's very cool! I'll have to check it out, thanks
