I'd Rather Be Tending My Sheep
A solo game where you play as a serf escaping a fictional medieval feudal kingdom.  To play you need a d10, a d20, a pen/pencil and a piece of paper to help you track your stats and items. Playtime is under 45 minutes. The game fits on a 2" by 3.5" business card. The typesetting is reflective of this. Many thanks to the folks on Discord who helped me refine this.
