Now bear with me on this.

I got the idea from this video talking about Gwent in The Witcher 3.

What if the TTRPG Crixa was played by the Reapers in Ember?

I imagine Reapers like to engage is some fun activity in their down time..
and although a TTRPG is likely way out of the day and age of a time
period that Ember is based in, it still might work!

Players could win extra resources by playing Crixa with other players, for those
so daring to wager their resources on a game of Crixa.
Essentially yet another way to gain resources.

Mark would be able to virtually advertise his TTRPG, and if Crixa
is fun to play, it could act as another resource sink for the game
(spend resources we thump to buy new ships to play against other Reapers with?).

A mini-game within the game! :p

Gwent was so popular in The Witcher 3 that players demanded it be made into
a real independent game.

WELL... HOW SHOULD SAY THIS....

EMBER IS FAR IN THE FUTURE OF CRIXA TABLETOP. CRIXA TABLETOP HAPPENED BEFORE THE RABBIT WAR.

WE REAPERS ARE BASICALLY WORKING FOR THOSE CRIXA GOVERNMENT.

Hmmmm, THAT SH*T GAVE ME SOME IDEAS FOR MY FAN-FIC LORE SH*T

thing is it's a ttrpg, which for me at least means multiple players and a gm playing either multiple sessions until it gets boring or they complete the objective; or once for several hours. it depends on the specific rules and particularly balance and counters, but i could see gambling on just the combat-part of the system. actually playing campaigns inside the game would be either restrictive or pointless.

Star Wars have the 3D chess thing.

But how about rather being a table top game you can play it with holograms. Like how animes based on card games do.
