This is the authors first ever smash at writing a game - usually she's behind illustrations for them - but every time she walks her dog by a storm drain she thinks of mermaids... with crooked teeth and algae marked scales...

Definitely my favorite theme of the jam! I love the use of an actual map to claim territory, using odd bits for tokens, and the suggestions for "calamitys" (e.g. farmer's market, concert.) The d6+stat resolution is tried-and-true solution pretty much anyone who's played a TRPG before will be able to pick up quick, and while I'm still unclear on what it means to have "Advantage," if I were to run this I'd be able figure something out.
