The Irresponsible Hero is an experimental roleplaying story game where players are secret agents in a poorly-written action film doing things that don’t make any sense… and would certainly lead to their death. A simple system based on rolling up to 3d6 determines the outcome of all actions. Complications abound as players move through a series of scenes, all tailored to meet players' actions,
