I'm torn here because the rules are actually pretty good for a rules lite narrative game, but it is by far the worst I have ever seen in terms of presentation. The artwork is horrible. The font changes constantly and is next to impossible to read in places. There are no summary or quickstart pages for reference.
the conflict resolution mechanic is to roll a d20 with modifiers, but the interesting part is that the results are compared to a "genre chart" so that dramatic actions have dramatic outcomes, and comedic actions have comedic outcomes. There's another mechanic that is similar to declaring facts to generate backstory on the fly, but I for one would like to see a second edition of this system with more Fate style aspects and good clean layout.
