Does a TTRPG need physical mechanics (dice, cards, etc) to be considered a TTRPG?

When creating games that are accessible to wider audiences, like making them more accessible to young kids, or trying out ideas that we haven’t seen released before, we sometimes push on the definition of what a tabletop RPG actually is.  This post looks at how TTRPGs and games are defined in a technical sense, how they can be defined from a public viewpoint, and what’s important about our creative endeavors.
Glyfi - a diceless tabletop RPG SRD for all ages

Glyfi: a diceless tabletop game SRD for all ages!

Glyfi (pronounced like glyph-ee) is a diceless tabletop RPG system for playing tabletop RPGs with all ages, from kids who can’t yet read or do math to adults who want a rules-lite but epic game! Glyfi uses printable tokens for randomization instead of dice (so no worries about kids and small pieces), and is free for anyone to use for making their own games off this system! Check it out, and I hope you enjoy playing and creating with Glyfi!
