I like the game mechanics. Faster. Players can do more from the start. XP earned on failed roll. 2d6 system adding d20 bonus stats, so it's a mix of systems and dice. One roll determines if player succeeds AND if enemy succeeds. Separate roll for damage.

In group attack, one roll for damage then add 1 for each member of the attacking group.

If I use Tiny Dungeon (or EZD6), one roll could determine hits from player and enemy! 5,6 is hit to enemy; 3,4 both player and enemy get hits; 1,2 enemy gets a hit on player.

Characters in Dungeon World begin with their maximum hit points, which never increase as they level up, making low-level characters tougher. Without AC and starting level 1 at full hit points really makes these characters more capable. I like that. I think they use assign base hit points to each class and player adds they CON number (full number, not bonus number).

I like this idea because the description of attempt and result is triggered by fewer rolls...In tinyd6 one roll would do it all. In other system, damage would be separate roll.

This takes away evasion as an action, maybe?

Experience is gained on a failed roll (full or both partial?)
