The Cat Distribution System (Jessika Rocha)
The is a cute one-page jam game I found on itch.io. It can be printed on a single sheet of paper and folded into a little 8-page booklet that would fit into a regular deck of cards. I have seen a few of these now, and they are both cute and clever. The creator's playthrough video is here . Meow. We sat down and played it on Saturday, ironically just a few hours after taking my cat Mango to the vet. Since all the rules had to fit on one sheet of paper, it wouldn't be expected to be hugely elaborate. Instead, these games give such clever basic frameworks, you can imagine scenarios and expansions in your mind's eye. Here, you make a basic character with a name and four d6 stats, and this character is going to wander around town looking for cats to rescue. Roll dice to pick a few odd items that you can maybe roleplay into the game. Then roll 2d6 to see which part of town you're visiting and another 2d6 to see what you're doing in that part of town....
