Feng Shui takes a twist on many role-playing concepts that some modern gamers may not like. Action is the name of the game. Battles are what the players are there for.
Pacing is everything.
Starting off with detailed, yet simple to understand character creation, Feng Shui allows players to chose from over twenty different templates and modify them. The weakness here is that rules for creating unique templates are sparse, but the core book should hold over a starting group for a long time. Each character's shtick is an ability that makes the character special. Divided up into different types of power groups, Feng Shui provides the reader with magical creatures that have creature shticks and sorcerers with yes, sorcery shticks. Most of the normal people, such as spies, thieves and masked avengers have gun shticks.
