With a wider community acceptance of the idea that games provide players with benefits to skill development, many publishers are releasing "educational" TTRPGs.
However, for these games to be widely accepted in a classroom setting and to actually be accessible to educators who are stretched on time and resources, it’s important to make sure that your game is not just educational but that it’s also going to work in a typical educational setting.

Go is tiny tabletop roleplaying engine built for low- or no-prep single session games. It runs on a very simple 1d6 system, requires no character sheets (though we made them in case you wish to use them), and includes rules for four genres: fantasy, mystery, sci-fi, and western. It is made for groups of 2-5 people, one of whom runs the game (the Guide).
The YASS SRD (Yet Another Single Sheet SRD) is a diceless narrative framework designed to be extremely light weight but yet still offer tactical decision-making. It does this by giving each player a pre-set number of outcomes that they have to then decide when is the best time to use them to overcome the obstacles in their way.
