This is so simple yet works so well. I just used it with complete newbies who wanted to try to roleplay but were intimidated by crunch, and it was a blast. Intuitive and encourages players to let roleplaying take the lead over maths. It is so low-prep, fast and frictionless!
It's easily hackable. We used it with MUNE, no GM, google picking the numbers and a video game setting familiar to us all (Elder Scrolls) but I am looking forward to using it with game mastered one shot adventures that look appealing but are not worth everyone learning the system for, as well as solo roleplaying.
The one page printable booklet was super handy in getting everyone on board and playing, and reassuring in its tiniess.
We plan to try out FATE Accelerated character traits for a slightly more complex character building in the future.
Recommend the GM/facilitator watching some of the Youtube playthrough to see it in action.
