Truly such a fun PbtA with a setting that grabs people's imagination at the basic description. The use of vices as both a stress removal and leveling system took a minute to really understand the implications of, but the fact that trying to challenge something 2 or more difficulty tiers higher than you is an automatic failure turns out to be the coolest world building / mechanics synergy I've seen. I ran a one shot that my players figured out the ease at which they could level up by pissing off things and making a lot of noise with their vices, but it meant the consequences of their actions of leaning in to these powers brought down trouble that eventually they simply couldn't handle and I got to wipe the party and they THANKED ME FOR IT! 10/10
