Heck, if I recall correctly, there was a Darklord in Ravenloft that was a house that ate people...

 

A house that gained sentience or an "ordinary" being that was transformed into a house? Anyhow, in one of those 2e continuations of a classic 1e adventure (I'm deliberately omitting further details in hopes of avoiding spoilers), there's an isolated tower - curiously shaped like a rook - way out in the boonies; the tower itself is a Mimic! Anyone who has sought refuge within is in for the shock of their lives once they start poking around.

I actually have something that is essentially this as a cursed item.   It has popped up more than once, and I won't lie, there are _two_ fascinating things here.  The first one is waiting to see how long it takes the party (or wearer) to figure out what's going on, 

 

And then again after the wearer _does_ figure it out, it is quite interesting to see what they do in light of rhis knowledge.

Short Forbes (gag) Review of the Marvel Multiverse d616 RPG

 

Tl;dr: 3d6+ability vs. target number, with "Marvel Die" bonus mechanic.  6 power levels for characters.  Not clear whether chargen is points- or class-based, but mentions "power trees" so it might be a bit of both.  Designed for quick pick-up-and-play with 130 stat pages for Marvel characters.
