# Mecha and Monsters: Evolved tags: #game/rpg/mecha-and-monsters ![[Mecha and Monsters - Evolved (cover).jpg|400]] **Mecha and Monsters: Evolved** is a tabletop role-playing game (RPG) where you and your friends become either giant robots (mecha) or colossal creatures (kaiju) locked in an epic struggle for dominance. Imagine a world where Godzilla fights Voltron, and you get the idea. It's basically a game of "rock 'em sock 'em robots" with more rules (but not too many, thankfully) and dice. The game uses the TinyD6 system, which, despite the name, usually has you rolling _two_ six-sided dice (2d6) for most actions. You only need to roll a 5 or 6 on _one_ of the dice to succeed, so you've got a decent chance of not completely messing things up. But hey, if you roll more than one success, you get bonus effects, like dealing extra damage or gaining a tactical advantage. Because who doesn't love a good critical hit, especially when it involves a giant robot punching a monster in the face? Sometimes, you might roll 3d6 if you have an advantage, or just 1d6 if you're at a disadvantage. This keeps things interesting and adds a bit of tactical depth to the game, without getting bogged down in complicated math. **Mecha and Monsters: Evolved** is an updated version of the original **Mecha and Monsters**. The "Evolved" edition streamlines the rules, adds new content, and generally makes the game even more awesome. So, if you're looking for a game that lets you live out your giant monster fantasies, this is the one for you. Just be prepared for a lot of property damage (and maybe some dice rolling). ## References - [Mecha & Monsters: Evolved - Core Rulebook - Gallant Knight Games](https://shop.gallantknightgames.com/products/mecha-monsters-evolved-core-rulebook) - [Mecha & Monsters: Evolved - Core Rulebook - Gallant Knight Games | TinyD6](https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/392300/mecha-monsters-evolved-core-rulebook) - [Review of Tiny Frontiers: Mecha and Monsters - RPGnet RPG Game Index](https://www.rpg.net/reviews/archive/17/17103.phtml) - [Mecha & Monsters: Evolved - Core Rulebook - DriveThruRPG](https://legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/392300/Mecha--Monsters-Evolved--Core-Rulebook)
