Cryptid (Mis) Communication is a two-player game about dressing up as cryptids and then communicating badly over a distance.
The PDF is 5 pages, with a clean, readable layout and a number of charming, playful illustrations.
To play, you pick a type of cryptid, dress up as them, stand at the opposite ends of a field, and shout a conversation back and forth.
Lots of safety tools are provided, as is advice on how to warm up before doing lots of shouting.
Several default types of cryptids are included in the PDF---less as character classes and more as costuming styles---but you're also encouraged to mix and match traits and make your own type of cryptid up.
Overall, if you're looking for something quirky to play with a friend, I strongly recommend this. The concept is wonderful. The mechanics are simple and fun. If you've got somewhere you can play safely, and if you don't mind getting a bit goofy, this is a game to pick up.
