I do a lot of Roleplaying and need some games for in-between and “gambling” for the others I play with. I don’t want my players to learn a long and massive game. Something that feels a bit medieval and uses dice of 55/32 card decks would be perfect. Like Gwent or Zombie dice. Maybe where you can cheat?
Might wanna consider Knucklebones from Cult of the Lamb. 1v1, should be played with eighteen 6-sided dice (which can be found surprisingly cheap), but a notepad and a pencil can reduce this to just one. Game typically lasts about 20 single die rolls. There’s a little strategy involved, which may or may not be obvious at first. I don’t think there are any occasions to cheat that you wouldn’t find in other games.
Edit: rules are explained simpler on this online version.
That’s a great idea. Seems pretty simple and fun. I might try that with my parents first…
