I first found out about the GNAT system with the Lindenbaum 2023 entry Escape from the Tower of the Stars (found here - Escape_from_the_Tower_of_Stars.pdf (teuton.org)).
Now we have more gamebooks released using that system, created by David Donachie.
GNAT is described as:
"...a rules system for solo adventures that emphasises speed of play and minimal record keeping.
GNAT defines your adventurous character with two numbers: Talent and Vitality. Talent covers both your luck and expertise, while Vitality measures your will to survive and capacity to endure harm. A limited pool of Fortune allows you to cheat the odds.
GNAT requires two six-sided dice."
The core rules are here - David Donachie's Website : GNAT Rules Reference (teuton.org). They are short and versatile, covering most common situations that adventurers come across.
Temple of the Skull God by Paul Partington
Welcome to the Kingdom of the Sky, a land of adventure and opportunity. Discover the secrets of the lost city, hidden in the teeming jungle.

And finally, if you are brave and resourceful enough, confront the priests of the death god before they can bring ruin to the kingdom.
In this adventure gamebook you decide where to explore, which dangers to face and which quests to pursue. With over five hundred sections and a complete game system, are you brave enough to enter the temple of the skull god?
