This cute solo journal RPG was created by Midlifedices where you, the player, become a housecat for a day. This game you will need five d4's (four sided dice), a writing utensil and the cards/chart that come in the document. This game is currently name your own price off of Midlifedice's itch.io page. The doucment is 7 pages long and includes a journaling page to keep track of how your life as a cat is going. There are also two pages of cards that need to be cut out with "meowvelous" and "catastrophe" pieces that effect your over all rolls. This game is all based on four sided dice built on Caltrop Core.

As you can see from the picture, our dear familiar Molly was very upset that I wanted to bring a new cat into our life so of course we had to make a Molly sheet as well. The first time I played this solo I made Beans McGee, a fluffy orange purr ball who loves windowsills and only eats wet food. Beans ended up having a Purrfect day.

The first step is thinking about what cat you are going to play. Are you embodying your own furry familiar? Do you look like an internet cat? Describing what you are and your kitty’s personality is the first part of the character sheet. Under “My human calls me:” and “A little bit about me:” you get to describe your own kitty. There are prompt questions to help as well on pg. 2 if you need some ideas of what to write.

Part of the rule set that your human has to sleep and work, and page 2 tells you what to roll for and how much sleep and work your human does. When your human is doing these two actions the lovey caticity is unavailable. I personally write an S for sleep and W for work on my chart page to know when these two situations occur next to all the times (rounds) that they are happening. Sleeping for 12 hours is another thing that needs to happen each day of play as well.

This was such a fun experience! The mechanics are relatively easy to learn and a story was built. Love that there was rules around "your human" as well. I recommend this game for all ttrpg cat lovers. I love the cat art work that is in the game, along with the cute cat paw prints that border the pages. The font was large and easy to read, and each page was neatly organized.

I very much enjoyed this adorable cat based caltrop game. This was the first ‘caltrop core’ game that I played and I was impressed. The game play was fast, but depending on how much journaling you put into it you can get quite detailed and make it a lengthier game. Bork and I were able to see that Molly had a purrfect day with about 20 mins of gameplay. I really enjoy the adorable cat artwork that appears on the cards, manual and chart page. It was fun for me to play a RPG game without the need of a DM. It was easy after a read through of the directions to understand how to play a caltrop based game and understand the rules. The dice tell the story but I enjoyed the chance of needing to pick up a card for 1’s or 4’s with such great cat themed bonuses and challenges.
