This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Amusing promo...

But could you tell us a little more about the system? Do those three dice correlate to stats?

Cheers,

R.

One die correlates to the most relevant approach you use when describing how you go about your task.  The default approaches are Bold, Careful, Clever, Forceful, Quick, and Sneaky.

One die correlates to your current well-being.  The default state of well-being is Stable, which is set at a d8.  Well-Being can improve (Invigorated at d10 or Unfettered at d12) or worsen (Distressed at d6, Crisis State at d4, or Out of Action [loss of agency]) as a consequence of events within the narrative.

One die correlates to the relevance of the tool you're using.  Unlike Approach and Well-Being, tools don't have a set die rating.  Instead, the die rating is circumstantial to the situation: an arming sword may be a Great (d10) tool to plunge into the belly of an unarmored hobgoblin bandit you're engaged in battle with, but is an Ill-suited (d4) tool when it comes to bursting through a locked wooden door before the horde of zombies catches up to you.

So essentially, your dice pool = current well-being die, approach die, and tool die.

I'm going to tell my wife, "I want to play Quick & Dirty".  Very catchy name for your RPG.

I gave it a read. It does not fit my needs so it is hard to offer useful commentary on it. I did strongly agree with some of the design choices, and appreciate that someone else took to the same inspirations. I see it as character narrative focused whereas  I gravitate to the characters only matter because they undertook the titular quest and need to be captivating enough to justify their screen time.

This was close to my reaction as well. I did find the promo video amusing!
