When you click into the map and press ctrl+r it just creates a new map and doesn't refresh the page. Thought that was pretty nice but others might not like hijacking ctrl+r
Clearly it contains alchemists' lost secrets to creating slimes. But is cursed to gradually turn anyone who reads it into a slime. Which at least one player will obviously try to do. There's some good motivation to complete the quest and/or make one or more players play as an intelligent slime for a while.
[EDIT] Gelatinous cubes, rather. Now I must read the Book of Shame.
You reload until you get one that looks cool, then you screen grab it, and hook up with some friends and your favorite RPG system rules. D&D, Hackmaster, GURPS, Thirsty Sword Lesbians, Pathfinder, Encounter Critical, whatever.
If you are lacking in rulebooks and/or friends this is pretty much useless.
Only post singularity. Much of the appeal of roleplaying games is being able to do stuff that you can't do in video games. But a sibling comment did link to a tool that would let you play these maps with your friends by importing them into a virtual tabletop.
Watabou is my go-to for low-prep toolbox apps in gaming. Between that one, and donjon (https://donjon.bin.sh/), and a name generator like https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/ , it's basically everything you need for a quick jaunt into the dark with your buddies.

I've actually used this in the past for a randum dungeon in my lockdown RPG campaign. It's pretty awesome.

Almost like you need dwarf fortress running at full speed to simulated the history and then take that as the basis of the dungeon.
Ten little snippets seems pretty superficial, the basic plot already seems to be repetitive.
The Moria/roguelikes would also be great for generation, backstory, etc
