Can&#039;t be late! This is hilarious but somehow doesn&#039;t surprise me. Is this common in the superhero realm? That&#039;s the only explanation here... Ha!]]></description>

Sorry to hear you didn&#039;t enjoy it, Peter. I can appreciate the limitations of a graphic novel adventure, yet I would have been happy to play a specific superhero. Maybe progress could have been measured in hero points, thereby adding more decision-making or some sense of player agency.

The initial customization gives the wrong impression. Not to spoil things too much, but if you don&#039;t want a superhero who can fly... You&#039;re going to get stuck without any way to progress very early. My hero idea didn&#039;t pan out at all, and it felt like I was punished for choosing incorrectly.

Still, I think the right audience would get some more enjoyment out of this one! This collection can be hit-or-miss, though I&#039;m happy to say that this has been the only one where I really felt limited. It almost feels like it should have been a book so the story could be the focal point, rather than giving the illusion of player choices. At least there are more gamebooks to try out!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Have to agree on the &quot;one path&quot; thing. I started with a particular type of hero and couldn&#039;t get enough Hero Points to advance to the next level to continue the story. I liked what I was seeing, but that &quot;must follow a certain power progression&quot; was a bit annoying. I put it down at that point and never picked it up again, though I did want to see where the story was going.  I&#039;m glad to know I wasn&#039;t crazy for thinking that it was all about choosing the right powers. That&#039;s definitely disappointing.]]></description>
