Did the reviewer perhaps miss this? Seeing as the game explicitly refers to Fudge dice, i would be surprised to find out it didn't mention the Fudge system as a basis for its own. For someone who hasn't heard of the Fate system before, this would be the second most important piece of information about this product.
It is "Fudgie", yes, though some might suggest that Fate has drifted far enough away from Fudge at this point as to be comparable to, say, the way that The Shadow of Yesterday is "Fudgie".
