This is the most straight-up, out-the-box GO scenario and toolkit I've ever SEEN.  I LOVE the reimagining of Yojimbo at a county fair, and that the "villagers" caught in the middle are the kids who are young enough to know better, trapped between the adults who never got out.  The larger punk rock vibe of "tear stuff up, get close, be real" in a world which feels all the more SURREAL for being accurate? 

Solid gold.  Running this.
