STORY The story of 1-800 SUPER takes place in a dystopian future in the year 2056, similar to ours but humorously exaggerated. The tone of the plot shifts between dark comedy and drama and is generally inspired by classic superhero narratives: Melancholic vigilantes and explosive supervillains fight for their very own goals with and against each other, while the player learns to be the puppet master that makes major decisions in the background. SCOPE 1-800 SUPER follows a lovingly crafted main plot with the length of a feature film. The side-events and social media feeds that accompany this story are randomly selected and recombined and make every playthrough unique. This game was funded by the Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg. *** Optimal performance on iPhone 6S and above. *** *** Not optimised for iPad but tested on iPad (6th Generation) *** ## Key features - Story-driven gameplay - Interactive audio-drama - Superhero and villain advice - Dark humor and drama - Unique playthroughs - Cinematic sound design ## Recent user reviews (9 of 9) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/1-800-super/id1530529414/reviews.md ### 5/5 — An helpline for superdudes! That’s the game! *2022-01-21, version 1.0.6* In the game you are hired as a counselor to answer the calls from superheroes and supervillains. They have superpowers but they have psychological issues too! In the game you will use a virtual smartphone to receive their phone calls and messages and read the “super” social network. Super-nice! ### 4/5 — Brilliant app *2021-04-29, version 1.0.5* It’s great i would just add a little more content, and maybe more ending. ### 3/5 — Fun, immersive, so much potential, fatally flawed *2020-10-14* So I’ll start with the good: The game is really fun! The premise is unique and It’s obvious that a lot of time and care went into it. the interface is simple but polished, the character art is absolutely gorgeous, the voice acting is 5 star, and the characters have depth and complexity, their stories and personalities are interesting. These things all help to create a really immersive experience. The bad: For its $3 price tag, it’s far too short. I played through from beginning to end in just a couple of hours. You’ve got a lot of content here but it seems like the plot is pushed forward very fast, maybe slow it down a bit. You also have a lot of different elements, phone calls, messages, the Twixta feed, you could space them out more to make the story last a bit longer. There’s some pretty glaring continuity issues too. For example the second time I played I got the message from Dr Know it all that the Hydra was at his lab, tame, but then after that Ears was attacked by the Hydra as if that hadn’t happened yet. It states that your choices matter, however in conversations with the characters it’s largely arbitrary what your responses are, the characters say the same things regardless. Due to the fast pace of the plot there are several characters I’ve never even gotten to meet or only spoke with them once. I hope this feedback is helpful! This would be a 5 star game if the plot didn’t feel so forced. Great job devs! **Developer response:** First of all: thank you so much for that detailed and thought-through feedback! Great that you enjoyed the game so much - even if you felt that the main story was too short or too rushed. We really would love to add more to this world. It would be really exciting to dive deeper into some of the character’s stories or to even add another main-story arc. But we also do like the idea of „slowing down“ a little as you propose. You are right: There already is a lot of content and e.g. so many characters that you don’t even speak to them all in one playthrough. So there are a lot of parameters we could tweak to give the game a different pace. We are also looking into these continuity-issues you described. These are difficulties that we encountered because parts of the story are created / combined randomly. But we will find solutions for that! We are already thinking about how to improve the game in one of the next updates and we’re definitely learning a lot from all the feedback we are gathering right now - like from this one you wrote. Thank you again for your time and all the best from our team here in Berlin! ### 2/5 — Too short *2020-10-12* Nice relaxing game about the end of the world but very very short for game at the price **Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and for you support! We understand your wish for more main story content and hope to add more to this world in a future update. We believe that for example a second character’s view on the story could be worth exploring. Until then we hope that the randomized side stories and Twixta content offer some replay value to you. All the best from our team in Berlin! ### 5/5 — Quite the surprise. *2020-10-05* Bought this on a hunch. I play lots of graphic novels and adventures, but this is a little different. It‘s basically mostly audio (you can turn on subtitles and read along), listening to calls coming in from all kinds of super heroes, baddies and the likes. Some are quite hilarious. You mime a phone helpline operator and give advice, affecting the ways of the characters. There‘s a ton of little things that make the world lively, like emails, some weird kind of twitter rip of, a music player etc. Underneath it all lies something pretty sinister, it seems. Enjoyed this a lot, pretty unique concept. ### 5/5 — Exceptional! *2020-10-04* Fresh and amazing! Now you need to work on there being multiple main story paths / characters. **Developer response:** Thank you, that really means a lot to us! And you are right: It’d be amazing to explore the story from another character’s perspective. We are working on new content right now. ### 5/5 — Recommended to gaming fans *2020-10-02* Really cool atmospheric game. Never played anything like it before. It’s kind of minimal in the idea but very great at telling an immersive story. If you like games, where you learn more about the story and get a relation to the characters this game is for you. ### 5/5 — Cool Game *2020-09-30* Really cool and creative game ### 5/5 — Wow! *2020-09-29* Absolutely beautiful illustrations and a wonderful soundtrack. On top a refreshingly calm gameplay in our turbulent times.
