in december 2015 some friends and i discovered a document titled PETIJU rules.docx. the document had been saved onto a friend's user account on a shared desktop computer in my school's linguistics & cognitive science lounge/project room. it came with the following information:

after a fair bit of searching, we weren't able to find anything else about the game, its creator/author, or state of completion, aside from a file in the same folder with similar creation + modification dates, titled jungle mural.docx.

known characteristics of PETIJU:

• components: dice, ?
• players: 2
• rules: relatively unknown. dice are rolled. riddles are solved. doubles grant a second roll. reaching "petiju" ends the game. there is one winner.

this game and its rule system are incomplete – but they can act as a seed around which other games may be formed. you are hereby invited to create a game around these fragments and components and link it below if you so choose.
