Design a tiny paper board game, then playtest and change one rule until it feels fair.
You need
- Paper and markers

Steps
Draw a track
Draw 20 squares from Start to Finish. Mark 3 squares 'go back 2' and 3 squares 'go forward 2'.
Pick a move rule
Flip a coin: heads move 2, tails move 1. Or roll a die.
Playtest 5 games
Write down who won and how long each game took.
Tune one rule
If one player always wins or games drag on, change one rule and playtest again.
