How's the gameplay?: Characters accumulate Tokens by playing into their trope negatively, this could be saying a catchphrase, messing up your interests due to your character flaws, or doing something that's morally dubious, while they spend tokens to use their skills to advance the plot positively. Additionally, each player takes over a "Pillar", an aspect of the world that they have full control over
What's the setting (If any) like?: The setting is "Vaguely Star Wars", a sci-fi world where things are also a little bit magical
What's the tone?: The galaxy is controlled by an empire, and you're (presumably) working to take it down! It's a rebellious romp
Session length: Sessions tend to peter out in shorter lengths, around 2 hours
Number of Players: 4 players is my recommendation
Malleability: As long as your setting has space and magic, it should work!

I was originally gonna write about this game's Expansion/Spin-off, Going Rogue, but then realized i uh. hadn't talked about the game itself proper, so here it is!
