Noko’s Lucky Rock-Paper-Scissors!

A stranger named Nako flags you down at night with a strange proposal: one round of rock-paper-scissors, said to bring good luck if you play along. It plays like a harmless dare right up until it isn't.

The setup is thin by design. A chance encounter turns into something with stakes neither of you agreed to out loud, and the "game" keeps being played long after the luck angle stops mattering.

You make choices in throws that double as choices in how far things go, watching a simple bet curdle into leverage one round at a time. There's no strategy to master here, just the slow realization that losing and winning both cost you something.
