There's so much to love about this. It takes a really charming, inventive setting, and gives you the tools to play around in it.

My favorite rules are the ones that really contribute to the tone of the game:

1. Kids don't die
2. The GM and players alternate, setting every other scene
3. Failing the roll does not mean failing the task, it means suffering a "complication" or other stressing thing. Success and failure are more narrative than mechanical.

I like to run games more rules-light than this game defaults to, but this book gives me the tools to do that easily. It is always easier to pare mechanics away than to add them. ( )

An amazing idea forged from the works of Swedish artist, Simon Stalenhag, whose 1980’s dystopian, somewhat Ligotti like landscapes are the basis for this game. You play kids in and around an alternate reality particle accelerator in mid Sweden. Arousing nostalgic memories of E.T , Stranger Things and other 1980’s shows this is a great but simple role playing system. Interesting g and evocative. Recommended. ( )
