No, it is not. Toon, the Tooniversal Tour Guide, and Toon Munchkin are all available at Steve Jackson Games electronic product store. e23.sjgames.com is the place to go. Toon Ace Catalog and Tooniversal Tour Guide are also available as print books from www.warehouse23.com (which is the online print product store of Steve Jackson Games).

You could always look into Deep7’s “1PG” line. You can learn the system in, what, 30 minutes? An hour?

I've heard very good things about the Prince Valiant game, written by Greg Stafford (known best for Runequest). The resolution system has something to do with tossing coins.

An overview is here.

Wouldn't Savage Worlds fit the bill pretty nicely?

I've known several people who played Amber Diceless RPG without having ever opened the rule book, or read the novels by Zelazny.

I've also played several Amber games without character sheets too.

Of course, you have to trust your gamemaster.
