Dumb me are (a one-page rpg)

[Groffa]

So! I tried to make a one-page RPG, with character sheet and rules and all. It's aimed to be a non-serious, easy to pick up game that you can play with your friends for a good laugh.

Basics: whatever you try to do, you need to roll below your dumb score. If you fail, you need to dumb it down and try again (by rephrasing or acting it out differently). That's it, basically.

Suggestions? Improvements? Does the layout work? Constructive criticism encouraged!

The single D20 seemed fine to me. Unless I'm mistaken rolling a 20 is a fail with any dumb score (except those of 21 or more). I'm no fan of using more than 1 kind of dice at a time, specially with simple games like yours.

I'd like to suggest another rule: if you roll a 20, you fail no matter what, and your dumb score is reduced directly, regardless of dum-dumbs boxes. After all you are rewarding critical successes, you could also punish critical failures.

Good game, very good and a lot of fun. By the way, do you have some adventure or campaign planned for this game?.
