I don't play solo RPGs myself either, but just like solo board games, there's loads of people who enjoy them (such as OP). Just because they don't appeal to you, that does not invalidate someone else's game experience and enjoyment :)
Anything you want to share about Risus and what makes it fun in your opinion?
Board games have a predefined goal. They aren't designed around collaborative, open-ended storytelling like roleplaying games are.
Risus is quick and simple and can be used for any kind of story and setting you want to build a silly little adventure in. Good for when you want to play something with folks and not have a lot of preparation or hassle.
