Live action roleplaying games like the old NERO. I’ve done that and it’s fun. There are LARPs like Mind’s Eye Theatre where combat is turned into rock paper scissors mechanics.You can turn most anything into mechanics, it is just a question of what you want to do with mechanics or not.I am mostly a non mechanics preference for talking and thinking for a more immersive first person roleplay experience with a bit of mechanics or ad hoc judgment calls for the more second person or abstracted out things like downtime activities.</blockquote>
