What's the dumbest conlang I could make a locale for Gamelord in, Esperanto?

When you distil language down to it's most basic elements (semantic primes) there are only about 65 words which contain truly distinct meaning. TokiPona, which is considered the smallest conlang to date has 120-137 words and a whole bunch of speakers/writers using it. Anyway, it doesn't have to be that complicated to come up with one on your own.

@toiletpaper toki pona is great but not good enough for a game console that needs to describe a wide variety of stuff. I think only esperanto would work, which I'm not enthusiastic about as a gag

I'm not sure what your actual game will look like, but have you considered maybe coming up with or finding a pidgin that would work?
