I've played *a lot* of games Descended From the Queen - it's absolutely my go-to system to play these day.  They don't all work well, but the ones that do I find myself coming back to again and again - For the Queen (of course), Final Lap, End of the Line, my own Descending the Stairs. 

Currently playing in a PbF session at RPGGeek of The Wizard's Tower, where all of the players are apprentices in an ever-shifting tower after the wizard disappears . . .

Hoping to run a session of This Thing We Started in the next RPGGeek New Player initiative - it's the game that introduced me to DFtQ, about a group of scientists tracking down their creation, and I've never played it.

Oh wow, that sounds like an awesome game. I've played numerous roguelikes where you're the hero and the dungeon/tower/etc. changes each time you enter (like Rogue Legacy), but never one where you're one of the people in the ever-shifting place!

What's RPGGeek? Is that like BoardGameGeek but for RPGs? And do you play across, like, messages or chat or something?

BoardGameGeek has a pair of linked sister sites - RPGGeek and VideoGameGeek - which are far less heavily trafficked, but can be accessed using the same account.  RPGG has a healthy PbF community taking place in the built-in forums.  I discovered them several years back during their annual New Player Initiative (usually each February or March) and now I GM a table or two for the NPI each year!

That's so cool! BGG was a huge part of us getting into the tabletop game world. 

It's really epic that TTRPGs are in this space where, since you don't have to be together in person and there's rarely a physical element to it that people share (like a board or whatever), they can be played remotely so easily. And it's really epic that you GM, too!
