 Toon (role-playing game) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Toon is a role-playing game in which the players take the roles of cartoon characters.
Although Toon is a genuine role-playing game requiring the participation of players and a game master (called the "Animator" here), it is designed with a tongue-in-cheek style that deliberately parodies many of the conventions of more standard, "serious" role-playing games.
Although Toon is careful to avoid any copyright violations, it is clear that the game was inspired by the classic Warner Brothers cartoons of the 1940s through the '60s, and characters such as Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck.
