The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen (New Style) by Rudolf Erich Raspe, James Wallis

2.5

Amusingly-written, but the actual design of the game is poor - in particular, it's possible to force a win simply by challenging people to duels and winning rock-paper-scissors against them, since they are immediately out of the game if they lose. (It's even possible for someone to be taken out before they even get to tell their story in this manner.)

Both a fantastic system and a convincing manifesto for a new way of looking at role-playing games and storytelling.
