    Shadowrun runs entirely on d6 dice. If you’re not big into crunch, I’ve run multiple campaigns of the rules-lite version that’s focused on storytelling called Anarchy. It needs a little home-brewing, imo, but is a good way to run it with folks that don’t want to play Spreadsheet: The Gam.e

        There are a lot of variants, so OP can probably find something they like.

          Nice, there’s some that I didn’t even expect in here - like a magical girl RPG. Definitely something for everyone there!

    GURPS, the Generic Universal Roleplaying System, uses only d6, with the biggest rolls tending to max out around 10d6. It’s very flexible, and is based around the power scale of “heroic realism”, aka action movie schlock. Characters can do badass stuff but if you get shot you typically die pretty quick. I’ve used it to run/play in the following games:

    • cyberpunk heists
    • kung fu movie knockoff
    • D&D with the serial numbers filed off
    • tactical mech combat
    • rules-light game in not!Ancient Greece where the PCs were godlings
    • post-apocalyptic road trip
    • galactic merchants
    • rowdy teens vs sasquatch
    • the movie Alien
    • Delta Green with the serial numbers filed off
