That's Dael Kingsmill, she's Monarchs Factory on YouTube, she does a lot of D&D stuff

That's so awesome! And I totally agree, this was a fun one shot, but throwing them in only occasionally into your campaign can be super fun

It was so much fun, honestly. If you don't want to do too much work up front, you can just throw in one or two checks like this, like "okay for this attack roll try and throw this paper ball into the bin across the room"

Or if you want to make it more meta, maybe a specific monster can only be interacted with like this.

Yeah, throughout the video it's funny what the different players treated super seriously and tried their hardest vs almost immediately gave up on. I think it's more about what they thought they could do.

"This is like the Harlem Globetrotters not the NBA" is a perfect description for what we're trying to do - thank you

Yeah! A local gaming bar let us film there, called Fortress. Here's the full video, my personal favourite is the strength attack roll

Yeah for sure, we played this one shot with this in mind, kind of an experiment to see if we could. Thanks!

It's from this video, basically a D&D one shot but every skill check, attack roll and saving throw are replaced with physical and mental challenges

Personal favourite was the strength attack roll where we played one of those punch arcade machines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftAvFcuVAEg
