I’ve never understood these 1-page RPGs that just involve rolling a die to determine an event from a list that modifies scores, over and over. Where’s the roleplaying? Where’s the agency? I love a good short RPG but this just feels like a number generator with no story attached.
I was thinking I must have missed something because I feel the same way. If a dice-rolling machine can play the game then what’s the point (I’m looking at you, snakes + ladders)

Seems like a fun tongue-in-cheek thing to give one of your players inside another campaign to determine how their time with lors Byron went.
Which is something different than a RPG…
