Greetings Programs! This is one of the better hosted games to come out in a long time. I love the variety of super powers it offers. I also love the fact that it's a complete story and does not end on a cliffhanger.Looking coward to more works by this author. End Of Line.
Wow? Wow!

The "best of us" can easily be called one of the better stories to date. This story really made me, personally, feel like I really was a superhero. I can sense a lot of of influence taken from the DC universe and some from the marvel universe, which isn't a bad thing. Of course I did feel a lacking of sorts, such as the Many options of powers that we get to choose from, yet not all of my powers were used throughout the story, which sucked since I really wanted to use 'energy manipulation'. Our backstory is fuzzy as you only get a few pages outside of your superhero costume, and most of it is the story telling you how tired you are. I hope the author decides to make a sequel, (Possible spoilers) maybe to continue your journey with the same hero or another hero in this new academy of heroes , ran by your last used hero, it will be a buy for me for sure!
Nothing special, but really?

I feel like the game ending is to fast. It gives you a choose what to do next then it ends, seems very abrupt. I feel most of the choices are there for character building but have little impact on the gameplay. For example you can pick your sexuality but there is little to no romance option. In fact I have yet to find anyone Romance able. You can also pick a fighting style and costume but that has no effect with anything anywhere in the game. I just feel like my money was cheated for this game.
here are my probs with this story

If you want to know how this game is, just look at the title card. Awful, crappy drawing that a four year old can make with his own feces. The game is the exact same as it was on the forums. It's full of grammar and spelling errors the plot line is boring with no character development and little meaningful dialogue, and no relationship building. On top of that your powers/costume barely is referenced throughout the story. Don't put your money into this half finished, childish doodles and buy something else. Honestly buy yourself a cookie and you'll get more enjoyment for a longer period of time then this "story." Good day.
A lot of potential wasted

I was really excited about this game since I read the open beta, with the in depth creation of your PC, I assumed that the story and characters would be just as complex and interesting. That was sadly not the case. The dialogue between characters is often just lengthy exposition, with little to no interaction between your character and others. And nothing really happens in the story, it's all just one group of people talking about what another group of people did, and that pushes you along to a final fight (which I couldn't care about because I felt there was no attachment between my character and the "conflict" of this story). I could go on and cite specific examples in great detail, but that would make this review no better than this story, where what little happens is only driven by whether you care about all the exposition building up to it or not.
Downhill from here

They say certain things flow downhill. Rivers, balls, excrement, this story. Starts off well, lots of backstory and character building then it sort of gets thinner and thinner until you're left with nothing but the feeling this game was published by EA and pushed out the door far too soon. Worth the $3 but it could have been so much more.
I paid three dollars for this?

What a waste of time and money. Not even close to what I hoped for or what this book could have been. I should have known from the poor looking app image. Played this game several times just hoping for something good but it's just to narrative in style. I respect what the writer was going for and what this could have been. So I gave it two stars. This writer has a ways to goad does the game mechanics.
Had potential

Failed miserably. I'm getting tired of these games not having any choices.
