I know nothing of Fours and will have to investigate and report back.

I'm a little bummed that I have to spend $1.50 to look at the thing because I imagine that I will never actually play it.
Amber, of course, is totally without randomizers while Four seems to use cards. Sounds interesting, though, and what will probably happen is that I will ponder buying this for a month or so and finally decide to spend the $1.50 on it. I'm sort of cheap sometimes.

This is an anything RPG using a deck of cards to resolve actions and combat. There are four classes and four attributes, all determined by card draw. Card draws also dictate success or failure with attempted actions, and contested card draws determine victory of defeat in combat. This is a nice, compact system with few rules and suitable for a quick pick-up game or a bit of diversion in a situation where rules, dice, etc.; aren't available. If your group of gamers is heavily into role-playing and not digging through volumes of rules for the perfect build this is an excellent game to run for them. Though the document is several pages, the actual rules are only a page ... and that's with big fon----t size and generous white space. Highly recommended and a steal at the asking price (though it is PWYW) of $1.50 US.
