Bones Deep, by @technicalgrimoire.bsky.social, is not only smartly laid out and SUPER accessible, it's also funny, goofy, and full of awesome illustrations of various sea creatures. I've played it multiple times and I would be oh-so-happy to play it again.

I’ve introduced more people to TTRPGs with @technicalgrimoire.bsky.social’s Kintsugi than with my own games: technicalgrimoire.itch.io/kintsugi
Kintsugi by Technical Grimoire Games
A simple role-playing game where failure only makes you stronger.

Random game idea: a future where corporations dump their waste through a time portal into the jurrasic age, and you play as rebel dino riders fighting to prevent past pollution.
