Advantage/Disadvantage as Dice
Description: Rather than rolling twice and taking the higher result, you roll an extra d6 and apply it as a bonus to your current roll. Likewise, disadvantage involves rolling 1d6 and subtracting it from the roll.

Special thanks to Scott Weber for pointing me to examples of TTRPGs that use this as a core mechanic.
This system is used in Shadow of the Demon Lord, and also in the intriguing PbtA hybrid Rogue 2e (which uses it as it's only roll modification mechanic ie no flat modifiers).
