Mutants & Masterminds is a neat system, and flexible enough that you can use it to do a lot of different things.

But if someone is asking for a game that is “simpler than 5E”, then Mutants & Masterminds would not be my first suggestion. Depending on what you’re trying to do, character creation could get pretty detailed.

I figured out the problem:

It wouldn’t let me post a comment-to-a-comment when the language was set to “Undetermined”. Setting the language of the individual post to “English” allowed it to work.

Weirdly this option wasn’t available to me on Jerboa. Only on the browser site.

I frickin love GURPS Ice Age supplement. But never have run it for two reasons:

1. After years of consideration I’ve come to the conclusion that I just don’t particularly like GURPS as a system.
2. I can never think of stone age scenarios that feel compelling in my mind. Not sure what quality would quite seem satisfying.

But still have some fascination with a dawn of humanity type setting.

Huh. Tried posting this response before, but Jerbo apparently ate my post. Turns out setting the language to English instead of Undetermined did thr trick.
