	'''Double Cross''' is a Japanese superhero RPG about [[Mutant\|biological monsters.]] It is made of random tables and [[weeaboo]]. Unlike [[Maid RPG\|the other Japanese RPG fa/tg/uys are familar with,]] the mechanics and fluff largely survive being taken out of Japan even if the books offer zero support for it. Because Japan is a horrible place where [[fun]] is considered a sign of laziness, the game is designed from the outset for one-shots over prolonged campaigns, to the point that the ''players'' are the ones who gain experience instead of the characters, which also makes it good for DM's who like running really hard games by allowing players to pop back in next week after being atomized in this while being at the same general power level as before. PCs are '''Overeds,''' random shonen protagonists infected with the Renegade Virus, which gives you superpowers but also drives you crazy and can turn you into a mindless monster if you use them too much. It's currently in its third edition, which is also the only edition to have been translated into English so far. The English core rulebook was infamously rushed to the printers without an editing pass, so it's absolutely chock full of misprints and typos; fortunately every copy is packaged with an errata booklet.
