Heroes Rise: The Hero Project

Second game in the series, and a damn good ribbing of reality TV as well as continuing to be a solid CYOA supers game. Everything you did in the last game has knock on effects, and adds up to trouble and intrigue for you! Highly recommended.

Its alright, the kind of game i used to play on my phone until i fell asleep. I picked up the hero series after choice of robots buts its appeal can be repetitive after the third or so playthrough. The branching in this series is okay, some things feel shoe-horned, especially if you had a good run from the game directly before this one. But most events you navigate through will have thresholds of effort you build upon, the game does not take kindly to the situational thinker who presents many behaviours, its bad for the press. Stick to lone wolf or team player, kind hero or ruthless hero and your fame/legend score will rise quickly.

The twists keep on coming! An amazing follow up on the original. Looking forward to any game set in this world. Keep up the awesome work :D

Tags: Adventure - Choose Your Own Additional Tags: Delete Local Content& Remove from Library TLDR: Unfortunately this series takes a turn towards all the elments I disliked about the first. Narcissism, focus on popularity, fame and a reality tv show even if you choose the justice path, imperfect handling of choosing a new game. The game just assumes homosexuality now rather than asking orientation and I have not used the save game feature from the first game due to the email and potential data harvesting with the dev. Everything is so vain, popularity centered and recycles the big names from the first iteration that I cared little about. This game is mostly about being a celebrity, and how to handle the public's opinion of being some kind of chosen one with powers that threaten the status quo. Maybe this is the kind of story that would appeal to many but personally it leaves me feeling dead inside. I gave it a chance read in diagonal and made the usual heroic, isolationist choices I would have made in the first game, but instead of things going wrong but me still being able to power through this sequel just failed me becuase for some reason I did not make it through the season of SuperHero survivor. I realized by then that my level of investment was just too low to really bother. I thought this would be heavilty politically influenced with the mayor sub-plot from the first game but that seems to come in only in drip fed small amounts. Conclusion: If fame and political intrigue swapped places with each other I might have soldiered on. With heavy emphasis on some underhanded power struggle from the mayor the decent writing of the author would have kept me on-board,even despite all the other flaws. Unfortunately this probably caters to a different audience. Removed local content and moved permanently to hidden library for declutter. Will check third iteration of franchise next but my expectations are set very low by now.

Продолжение серии в жанре приключенческой фантастики. В целом довольно объёмное и удачное произведение, но к сожалению продвижение по сюжету основано на целостности и последовательности выборов. Вот только личность не выразить одним словом, даже самые упорядоченные и ярко выраженные качества оттеняются исключениями.

Diverse options

I didn't like this quite as much as the last game, but it was still worth playing. Rating of 3/5 for me. I just wasn't a huge fan of the 'reality TV' setup. That said, I still enjoyed the game and game 3 was worth playing into for me (as it was also an improvement on this game).
