Trad Games hit Maid in the Obscure and Mockable thread several months ago, nice to see it get front page treatment by another bunch of guys.

Trad Games ultimately arrived at a similar conclusion.

I don't think I can excuse anybody playing this game at all.

Would you say this is worse than F.A.T.A.L., which you guys refuse to review?

FATAL is the absolute bottom of the barrel, though you can check out a pretty decent review of it here.

I'd like to think there's a difference in these guys playing it once in a 'ha ha this game looks WEIRD let's try it' kinda way versus having an on-going campaign.

Or LARPing. <:mad:>

Heaven help me, I'm actually considering a short-run campaign that starts with the first level characters being eaten by something similar to the Gibborim and working their way through the creature ahead of facing the final boss, its heart.

Find the old Tom Wham game Snits Revenge, Steve Jackson republished it a few years ago. It's pretty much this in board game form.

As someone who is at least passingly familiar with most major RPGs, I think its odd that I've never seen TORG before. I would think that I would have seen at least a volume of it on he shelves of a Goodwill somewhere. Was this a regional thing?

No, it was nationwide. West End chose to focus on promoting Star Wars and Paranoia to the exclusion of anything else they ever did.

In the Fatal And Friends 2 thread in Traditional Games someone is going through the TORG books, come by and check it out:
