Capture the Critter

The "Capture the Critter" games are automated games run during GM events that have the same general set of rules and results. A variety of both critters and return locations for each game have been found, appropriately tailored by a GM to each different event.

Rules

• When you see a critter, try to GET it when both hands are empty. You might miss, you might grab just a scrap of junk, you might get stunned, or you will actually catch it.
• Each critter attempts to escape your grip approximately every 10 seconds, so run fast once you catch it.
• When in the room with the return location, PUT <CRITTER> on <RETURN ITEM> and claim your randomized prize.
