Have you played 10 million hp planet? It’s built around this concept, the endgame is bashing an entire planet to pieces. And you start with just d6 damage! If you love stupidly epic over-the-top ridiculousness, this is the perfect game!

Sometimes you have to go with the flow. There is now a cabbage and this was the correct solution for the puzzle. Keep the session enjoyable for everyone, the “real solution” doesn’t count all that much.
Story time!
A while back, I ran an investigation-based campaign over multiple sessions. Between long breaks in play and general chaos driven by the players, they somehow ended up accusing the one NPC who was actually trying to help them. We ended that session there.
In the downtime, I thought about what happened and had an idea… mostly as a joke - what if I reworked the story so that NPC was actually the real villain? I tried writing it, and it turned out the story could mostly work. A few small details didn’t line up perfectly, but the players had forgotten them or wouldn’t have made the wrong accusation in the first place. I decided to go with this revised version.
The next session became an epic finale where all the players felt really clever for deducing the plot twist. It was one of the best sessions of the whole campaign because they were playing at their best, feeling empowered. I think forcing them into a session where they had to try and “fix” their mistake while in a bad mood over having been so confidently wrong wouldn’t have been nearly as fun overall.
“Beware of the chicken” is a story built around this premise.
The first chapter is a guy that gets isekai’ed into a cultivator, thinks about all the training, fighting, politicking, tribulation of the gods that would bring, and says “Nope! I’m going to find the safest, most boring place in the land and build a farm”.
And he does, there’s nothing forcing adventuring on him.
Yet it’s an interesting read, it was one of the highest rated stories on Royal Road and has been picked up by Amazon Kindle recently.
Oh, that’s the next excuse i’ll use when a recruiter asks for my github page. “i’m protecting my product”.
Thanks, I was looking for something like this and banging my head against using Newpipe.
America is a weird place, Europe is more balanced in general. Back in 2000 we had more of a 60%-40% split in computer science.
Yep, any non empty string is truthy.
