Simple fantasy games? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

I do a lot of Roleplaying and need some games for in-between and "gambling" for the others I play with. I don't want my players to learn a long and massive game. Something that feels a bit medieval and uses dice of 55/32 card decks would be perfect. Like Gwent or Zombie dice. Maybe where you can cheat?

How about Regicide, a co-op playable with a standard 52+jokers deck, has a vague medieval/fantasy theme. A bit heavier than Zombie Dice but should be manageable. Just have to memorize 4 simple suit powers.
There is also a nice thematic deck available which is a good way to support the game's designer.

That's actually the game that motivated me to make this post. I'll try it the next time I get the chance
