5.0 out of 5 stars Quite good. Expansive. Great world building. July 23, 2012

Here, you get to play a hero... who you get quite a bit of input on. Name, sex, sexuality, fears, joys, desires, problems. Each time a choice is made, the background program makes a bit of and adjustment, and the story carries on, but things might turn out differently with different choices.

The story -- at least the versions I played through -- are quite excellent. Good villains abound, and the world that they've set up is excellently detailed.

I got beaten up quite a lot in the first six acts. I'm not sure if that was my choices, so I'll want to play through it again to see if I can do any better.

Recommended.

Probably the best Interactive Fiction I have read in a while. I'm not a crazy fan about the hero genre, but I still couldn't tear myself away from it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Superhero Soap Opera July 29, 2012

By John Maier

I'll start with a confession. This is my first Kindle gamebook, so I can't say how the experience compares with others of its kind. However, on its own merits, this is a fantastic gamebook. There is a vast amount of choice available to you throughout the story, and while the game system is not overly complex, it works well to represent the choies you make. The story is compelling and hard to put down. There is a large cast of characters who react beliveably to your choices. And the post-Powered 22nd Century is quite an intriguing place, one I hope we can return to someday. My only complaint is the occasional forced choice - usually due to your stats and past choices, but sometimes solely by the plot. Still, a tremendous effort, and one I am glad to own!

When I purchased this item, I too expected a quick predictable journey that probrably isn't worth my three dollars. I have never been so wrong. This is a very through and thrilling tale that will leave you satisfied. As a powered of MC, will you rise, or will you plunder? Only you can decide!
