A downloadable game.
This game unequivocally RULES. It might be my new favorite game for a heist one-shot. The premise is gripping right from the start: these mechs are ancient, powerful, and worth a lot of money and status, so you need to steal one. You get to build out the mech's systems and significance, and then you cut straight to the action. You build characters through play, to fit the challenges that are presented to you. The whole heist portion feels exactly like a heist montage in a movie. It's everything I've ever wanted out of a heist game. But THEN, in the getaway act, the tone switches to full space mech finale. Systems power on and the team makes a fantastical getaway. Kamina who? Let's talk about the crew who stole the Burning Soldier and nearly all went out in a blaze of glory!
I tried this at Big Bad Con this past weekend and was so enchanted I was running it for friends less than 12 hours later. You want this game.
