Core Mechanic

Roll d20 equal to or under attribute (STR, DEX, WIL) to avoid danger. Attacks always hit — roll weapon damage directly, reduced by armor. Slot-based inventory where items and conditions compete for limited space.

Best For

Whimsical yet perilous adventures as tiny mice exploring a vast world of cats, owls, and crumbling ruins. Great for groups who want elegant OSR play with a charming tone.

Highlights

Card-based inventory system tracks gear visually, detailed hexcrawl and adventure site toolboxes, free PDF, approachable tone with real danger, instant character creation

Considerations

Condition cards can stack harshly, light on long-campaign advancement structure, card-based inventory requires printing physical materials, limited guidance for non-dungeon adventures
