Very dope. I started with the free pdf, and now I have the hard cover for core and the toolkit. There are lots of examples, and it's pretty easy to grasp. So far my group has enjoyed it. Infact, one of the members enjoyed the simplicity and versatility so much that went out, bought dice, and is starting up his own games! Fate Core has budded!

One of the best dollars I have spent was on this game. I picked it up and threw together a Fallout themed one shot adventure. Everyone had fun, though it took them some time (about 15 minutes) to adjust to the rules-lite-ness of it. I heard a lot of "so I can just put whatever down? Can I put ____?!". Their characters came alive.

The relationships they chose added a nice depth to their characters and NPC's, and the npc's I added to their sheets made them more invested in the game and setting.

The ease of making a skills check meant that every character felt involved: fighty, techy, talky, etc.

I did alter leveling a bit since it was a 1shot adventure, and instead I rewarded them with one extra die when they accomplished something.

This is a great system for a quick game, or for introducing new players to rp. I'm sure you could make a longer campaign with it if you wanted to, but the GM wouldn't be able to be as handwavy as I.

All in all, I would use it for casual games and for introducing people to table top rp. It's a nice addition to my rp toolbox and worth the dollar.
