Game Summary

Are you ready for some two-fisted science adventure? Then it’s time for the Atomic Robo RPG! Have you ever wanted to face down global conspiracy as an immortal atomic robot or Carl Sagan? The Atomic Robo RPG makes it possible.

The Atomic Robo RPG brings you the most explosive Fate Core system experience yet. This is action science like you’ve never seen it before, coming straight at you from the pages of the popular Atomic Robo comics by Brian Clevinger and Scott Wegener. Play as an action scientist or immortal robot, super-spy or pulp adventurer—or something stranger still from the hidden corners of super-science!

This is multi-era, pick-up-and-play gaming at its best: get playing in ten minutes, or take your time and make the most of behind-the-scenes rules for added depth. Hop into your Tesladyne jet and travel the globe in one time period, or battle across the decades as a cast of scientifically talented adventurers. Face down demented dinosaurs, rogue government agents, and stolen Tesla-powered technologies!

10 / 10Ian_the_SkinnyOne of the best RPG manuals of all time. The Atomic Robo comic is a very fun adventure comic, full of quips and weird science and Nazi-punching. The Fate rules are a very fun RPG system, perfect for PCs who jump straight into trouble and then have to MacGyver their way out of it. So you have a peanut-butter-and-chocolate sort of combination here. But what really elevates this game is the writing. It is breezy, conversational, fun! But it is ALSO clear and precise, and is still the gold standard for how you explain the Fate System. Managing that balance is much harder than it appears, and while some other games come close to Atomic Robo’s level, I don’t think I’ve seen any beat it. The one complaint I have about this game is that it has a new character creation system. This system is supposed to be simpler and faster than the traditional method, but in my experience it is really not. This is a minor complaint however, and easy to fix.
