Cars and Cameos
Micro-RPG
You are a famous actor who drives a notable car while pulling off convoluted heists with other famous actors.
Before you play
- Format
- One-page micro-RPG.
Name yourself.
It is unclear why you do this, and whether it’s occurring within a movie or in real life is a mystery, so you’ll just have to suspend your disbelief.
Do not forget that you’re a famous actor, so use a catchy stage name and maybe a nickname by which you’re known (you may love or hate this nickname).
Driving fast. Acting in role. Chewing scenery. Breaking the fourth wall.
Your abilities cover driving fast, acting in role, chewing scenery, and breaking the fourth wall. Your actor’s background and chosen car reward particular approaches: play the moment with gravitas, draw attention, or let an apparently unremarkable vehicle surprise everyone.
Chases use a gap to close and a limited number of opportunities to do it. Describe the stunt, make the roll, and see whether you can catch up before your chances run out.
Die at dramatically appropriate times.
When you die, immediately replace your character with another actor. This new actor must be one more famous than the last. If that’s impossible, you are out of the game (sorry!).
Cars and Cameos is a one-page micro-RPG with character choices, vehicles, and chase rules.
