It’s my favorite TTRPG! I’ve probably played more Apocalypse World than anything else.
I will say that it won’t work for every group; it has a tendency to go PVP, and the players need to be able to handle that. However, because it doesn’t shy away from PVP conflict, the MC gets to be more of a player than in most other systems (even other PbtAs). I’ve run in so many different settings, too: an interstellar colony ship 200 years into it’s voyage (and 50 years after a war), a military base that got time-portaled to dinosaur times, a waterworld archipelago, etc. I’ve played campaigns where I ran a taco truck or killed an eldritch god, and they were both just as compelling.
