Clever Girl is a primarily solo RPG where you play either a Raptor or a Human in the fictional dinosaur theme park, Dino Land. You will use a combination of dice, playing cards and a Jenga Tower to tell your story. It can also be played as an intense, competitive two-player game by having one player use the Raptor Edition and one player the Human Edition.
Raptor Edition: You are the lead raptor– the smartest, fiercest predator in Dino Land. After "the incident" the humans have all fled or died, save for one last person in the control center. Food is becoming scarce, and you are hungry for revenge.
Human Edition: You are the last surviving human in Dino Land. You don't know what caused "the incident" that set the dinosaurs free, but everyone else has either escaped or become prey. You are alone. Can you keep the lights on and the doors shut long enough for help to arrive? You have to try.
You will need:
- One six-sided die
- One Standard Playing Card Deck
- A Tumbling Block (Jenga) Tower
- 10 Tokens (shark teeth, small rocks or similar)
Content warning: This game contains sensitive topics including isolation, guilt, abuse, trauma, loneliness and death.
