From BoardGameGeek

Roll or Stand: Forbidden Adventures is a cooperative and solo roll-and-write, print-at-home game. It combines Blackjack-inspired mechanics with thematic route-building puzzles, offering a fresh twist on the roll-and-write genre. Embark on a replayable narrative campaign featuring 3 comic book-styled scenarios, each with multiple possible outcomes. Explore 12 unique puzzles, each thematically tied to a cinematic scene. Each turn, you roll 2 dice and add the results to your previous rolls, aiming to get as close as possible to the target values without busting (going over), similar to Blackjack. Once you choose to stand, you extend lines in the active puzzle to work toward fulfilling its objective. Note: Each scenario is contained on a single sheet of paper, with no crafting required. All you need is one pen per player and two standard six-sided dice to play the game. -description from the publisher
