Full Text of Game:

"You're the Loveland Frogman! Avoid everywhere on the map that prohibits cryptids."

(Image Description: A pickpocket in a pink suit and top hat is talking to a photorealistic frog in a crowded city street. People around the two of them are looking on worriedly)

As stated, this game attempts to meet the criteria of all 3 themes in the 12 word RPG Game Jam and thus get a gold star. The themes are as follows:

Folklore (From one's own culture): The game specifically refers to the Loveland Frogman, a cryptid local to Ohio.

Cartography: You need to find every place on the map that might theoretically prohibit cryptids (this part is arguably not super clear in the game rules. It still counts, right? Pleeeease)

Forbidden: The player is required to find places that cryptids would be forbidden to enter, theoretically.

Okay look, this game is hot garbage, I know. It's a game jam game, I swear I can do better than this, I'm just trying to have a good time right now. I do not recommend anyone play this--I made it bad because bad games are easier to make than good ones. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Anyway, I think I'm done with this game jam. I had fun! Looking forward to next time, or whatever suffices for a next time. Bye!

This crams so much lore and story into 12 words that I'm a little flabberghasted. Just by using the specific cryptid name, you know what to do and which map to use, the instructions are crystal clear...honestly, that's quite clever.
