Dice d6

No Thank You, Evil! is a children's RPG by Monte Cook based on a variant of the Cypher System. Bizarrely the game is named after its equivalent of the X-Card, in that players are encouraged to call "No Thank You, Evil" if they are frightened or upset by something happening in the game.

The variant modifies the dice to a d6 and adds an additional stat pool devoted to helping other characters.

The setting, rather than a childlike D&D style setting, is instead a surreal children's fantasy comparable to Roald Dahl. This combined with the fact that a later Kickstarter ran for the game plus a large set of variant accessories suggests that this game was major inspiration for Invisible Sun.
