As You Know, F.A.T.A.L. is known as the worst tabletop game ever written.

The story goes that author Byron Hall, along with his "contributors" Torturon, Burnout and Psychotic Messanger of Doom, trolled the forums at RPGnet, causing the community there to request a review as negative and abrasive as reviews can get. The result is an MST of the game's sourcebook, in which Darren McLennan and Jason Sartin savage FATAL, its creators, and its fans.

The McLennan/Sartin review can be found here. Hall and Burnout posted a rebuttal to the review, found here.

Tropes used in McLennan and Sartin's Review of F.A.T.A.L. include:

Applied Mathematics:

Error: No text given for quotation (or equals sign used in the actual argument to an unnamed parameter)

Insult to Rocks: The self-advertised "best line of the review":

So, basically, saying that this game should be burned is an insult to fire.

Running Gag:

By the way, did I mention that this book is 900 pages long?

'Cause I'm going to be bringing it up as this review progresses.

A lot.

So Bad It's Horrible: The agreed upon consensus.
