FIST is a TTRPG capturing cold war sci-fi pulp action. In The Only Agent Left I wanted to capture the clumsy spy trope inspired by films like Johnny English. This was achieved mechanically by separating players into The Agent and Sidekicks. The design was inspired by the early parts of the film The Incredibles and penguin book covers. The Only Agent Left was edited by Dale Blackburn.
