What it is about
This is a generic TTRPG action resolution system created for the 36 Word RPG Jam ! It uses a single standard French card deck (like the one used for poker and other common games), without the jokers. It relies on the Game Master setting a success probability for actions, and based on that, the player will draw (hopefully) the type of card required for completing their play. The instructions are available in regular letter-size, and in a convenient playing card size, so you can print it on heavy paper and keep the instructions with your card deck! This sytem can be used for any setting: fantasy medieval, cyberpunk, contemporary... There are no limits.
