#Powers for Algernon
I thought this up a couple years ago in a twitter thread, lost when I deleted my account. So I've recreated it! Better than before, with a pretty simple and straightforward way of solving successes and failures. It's about 1 page long, like my last game! No dice required.
If you have thoughts, I'd be happy to hear them. If you PLAY it, I would REALLY be happy to hear about that!

By Shaker
a GMless game for 3-5 players
You are roleplaying as mice, rats, or other small animals. You may have been a captured wild animal, or maybe you were specifically bred for science. You have been the subjects of experiments at a private or government laboratory. Each of you has been altered by the testing, and possesses a unique superpowered ability (on a mouse's scale). You can each read and write human language, and speak the shared language of small animals. And you are determined to escape.
