HOUNDs
HOUNDS is a dice-stackinig roleplaying game about bonding between an mech pilot and their robot companion, where authorities erase the pilots memories to prevent resistance in escaping from Earth's grasp; each turn involves overcoming obstacles while accruing stress which can lead to towers of stacked dice that fall when six more memories are lost. The guidebook includes recommendations for playing without a tower if stacking dice is ever an issue and also has two versions: one with illustrations by Vincent Patrick, the other illustrated exclusively in color using watercolors.
