This setting is awesome. I was hesitant to buy it at first thinking it was a setting for kids, but it's not just for kids. This is one of best Savage Worlds settings ever.
It's basically Agents of Shield (super-powered agents) in an awesome steampunk world full of mysteries and wonders. The characters gain themed powers and edges based on the crystal they choose, but these powers are not permanent. You can change crystals sometimes during your character's career. The crystal also messes with the characters' minds a bit giving them some fun hindrances,
The setting rules are so well designed including the ability to pay a benny for a one-time power stunt using their crystals and fun interlude rules for creating stories of the agents' adventures.
There are so many story possibilities with the variety of different lands, strange creatures, ancient tombs, mad science, floating islands, haunted lands, and the mysterious organization that the agents work for.
I really love this product.
