Big Goat, Little Goat

An ungulate-based RPG for two players.

Once upon a time, there were two goats.

One of the goats was very small. The other goat was very big. Like, real big. An absolute unit of a goat. And everything the first goat was, the other goat was their opposite: the big goat was patient, and the little goat was not; the little goat was ever-so-clever and the big goat was thick as two short planks. (Or vice versa, be the goat you’ve always dreamed of being.)

And these goats, for some unknowable reason, headed into town. They’re going to try on hats, eat lipstick, summon the dark lord, spend £20, or set up a semi-successful food truck enterprise – the possibilities are endless, or at least as numerous as you can generate on 1d12 + 1d4.

This month Grant started trying to make a mech game, and this is what came out: one of you’s a big goat, the other is a small goat. One of you has a big die, the other has a small die. Your entire job is to enjoy a lovely (by goat standards) day out, despite the nearby humans’ inadequate understanding of your need for enrichment.
