This is just a quick note to correct something I saw in Jason C's review of this game. The central mechanic is NOT to roll a number of d6s and sum the result.

Instead, this game uses a unique (as far as I know) central mechanic of having you roll a certain number of dice based on your score in an attribute, plus extra dice for Traits that apply (kind of like Aspects from FATE games) and any circumstantial modifiers and then look for matches in the results. You then take the highest matching pair from 1 to 5 and try to equal or exceed a difficulty number with that match. For example, if the difficulty is 3 and you roll 6 dice and get a 1, 2, 4, 4, 5, and 3, you succeed because you have a matched pair of 4 that beats the difficulty number. Results of 6 are called Nudges and can do different things to augment success or mitigate complications from failure, but never count towards getting your matched pair. If you're rolling directly against someone (attack versus defense, for example) and you tie, then number of Nudges breaks the tie.
