Charming. One of the favorite things I've seen so far on this site.
I'm smiling just thinking about how to pitch it to my table.
I really like usage of the map and silly goblin doodles!
Let me push the mechanics even further (not sorry for unwanted suggestions):
With usage of graphics, you could bring even more mechanics only by drawing e.g. three wound boxes to each goblin and rewriting the success mechanic to use d6:
With changes like this you have even more robust (if we may say so) mechanic that is not based only on discussion but brings randomness and prolongs life of the goblins. Introducing difficulty is not necessary as it only strenghtens the wild nature of goblins - they may succeed in heroic tasks while fail completely in mundane activities.
Ok, those are my two cents here. You inspired me to add the map to my game Passage - Now, I need to draw some maps…
Thanks for your suggestion. I'm not sure I want to add dice or life to goblins and this game.
But I'm working on character sheets for the goblins and I quite like the ideas of adding checkboxes or maybe scales to incite the players to do goblinish things. I need to think about it.
Oh my goodness, this is brilliant! It's SUCH a clever use of the 36 words, and you even have a whole world here, oh my goodness! There's so much to read into everything, and I love the emergent stories that are so visible even just from looking at the game.
Fantastic work! This is an amazing example of what a 36-word RPG can be 🥳

Thank you for your positivity. ❤️
Anytime! Thank you for making it, it's fantastic and genuinely clever and unique!
Extrêmement puissant. Je suis fan!
Tu triches Jan ! Tu fais d'habitude des jdr sans le moindre mot, alors là avec 36 mots, c'est le mode facile pour toi ! :p
Comme toujours tes dessins sont super évocateurs. Et l'idée est trop bien ! (et adorable comme seul un Gobelin peut l'être !)
Trop bien 💚💚
C'est le genre de jeu qui me donne envie de créer des jeux similaires 😁
Meilleur compliment !
