How do rulebooks enhance the experience?

Rulebooks also encourage creativity and strategic thinking among players.
What types of rulebooks are available?
Rulebooks vary based on the game system and genre. They can include core rulebooks that cover basic gameplay mechanics and setting details, supplemental rulebooks that introduce new rules or expand on specific aspects of the game, and adventure modules that provide pre-written scenarios for GMs and players.

How do I choose the right rulebook?
Choosing the right rulebook depends on several factors such as your preferred game genre (fantasy, sci-fi, horror, etc.), complexity level, and storytelling style. Consider reading reviews, exploring sample pages, and discussing with fellow players to determine if the rulebook aligns with your gaming preferences and group dynamics.
Can rulebooks for different systems be used together?
