Jerry Cotton roleplaying game is in design phase. First demo games at Ropecon 2025, Helsinki. jerrycottonrpg.com | FI / EN
Unfortunately Jerry Cotton does not participate RopeCon :(
We are still waiting a response from the publisher.
First Jerry Cotton scenarios available at #ropecon 2025 [in Finnish only]:
ropecon.fi/opas/#text:J...
A ”6” in any would be success.
Any ”1” would be fumble.
A combination of both would be a Pyrrich Victory - a success with negative side effects.
Another ”6” or ”1”? A result with steroids.
The game needs dice. These represent the Jerry Cotton theme - Black and white for the FBI, and red for the Jaguar (or blood - your choice).
Black dice are for the attribute check.
White are for the skills check.
Red are for equipment check.
Jerry Cotton is the titular character of pulp crime novels.

In Jerry Cotton #RPG the player can join the story as Jerry or other G-man.
Jerry Cotton RPG is fan-fiction and Bastei Lübbe - the publisher of Jerry Cotton novels - is aware of this project.
The #rpg system under the hood of the Red Jaguar will be a simply one, for the spirit of pulp-storytelling and to avoid the rabbithole of endless rule interpretations.
The top candidates are YearZeroEngine and FailForward. What would be your choise?
The first scenario is about a murder of local politician in 1969 Brooklyn.
Will Jerry and Phil find the evidence to bring the suspect to the court of law? Do they practise traditional detective work or adapt modern methods like wiretapping and hidden mics? #ttrpg
Welcome to follow the design path of Jerry Cotton RPG!

Roolipelistudio: Antti
Antti aloitti roolipelaamisen 1990-luvun alkumetreillä: "Pelasimme GURPS Cyberpunkia ja kuuntelimme Judas Priestiä, en juuri ymmärtänyt kummastakaan, mutta molemmat osuivat kerrasta."
Antilla on työn alla monia omia roolipeliprojekteja, kuten Helsinki Cease-Fire ja Jerry Cotton:
