  • Great!

    This game was awesome. I wish I could have gotten a little deeper into my romance with Hugh, but otherwise I have no complaints. I used to read choose your own adventure books as a kid. This is the first adult kind of version of that which I’ve really enjoyed. :)
  • smart & fun!

    Bugs aside, the replay value of this game is high. Solid plot and dynamic characters make this game interesting, no matter what choices you make.

    I absolutely love this game and sincerely hope a sequel is in the works.
  • Thomas

    As a long time fan of Choice of Games Text Adventures I can honestly say this is one of my all time favourites. With a great story, great characters, a fantastic main character that you can create, and a expansive universe rife with a story that makes you want to dive right in. Eagerly looking forward to the sequel I hope is coming.

  • Great game!

    I throughly enjoyed this one. Well written but a little slow at first. I do wish it was longer and I hope there is more in the future.
  • Deeply engrossing and worth every penny

    I have been playing games from the Choice of Games/ Hosted Games collection for over 2 years now with somewhat worrying dedication. Yet it's been a while since i've found one so deeply engrossing and the sole cause of so many missed buses and trains. Worth every penny and more.
  • I love this

    My favorite one that ever came out!! I hope a part two comes out. I loved the characters, plot and the romances. Dusk was my favorite romance.
  • Interesting, replayable and fun

    The story is quite good. It is not the most original concept but it is handled well and there are quite a few elements that turn now mundane story tropes into something refreshing and almost new. Most importantly it was a lot of fun. I thoroughly enjoyed reading through every line and page and I especially appreciated the length, allowing you to get drawn into the story and characters without feeling like it drags on. There are some errors in coding but nothing that won’t get sorted out within a few days. And perhaps even more so this was the first time since probably choice of robots that I did not feel like I had to restart on the first playthrough. The game is very good about working within your choices as long as you present consistency of character. It will still punish you on mistakes but even those are done so well that you feel like it’s just indeed another branch or path as opposed to a mistake. I loved the main character and playing as her and felt like my play style very well reflected in the writing.

  • One of the best

    Most CYOAs don't flesh out the main characters much, but this one gives you lots of choices. Lengthy, with replay value, sets up for sequel. One of the most deftly handled worlds I've read, considering a its a hodgepodge of steampunk science fantasy with aliens to boot. Not completely debugged but mostly wasn't too bothersome. Like most Choice Of games it's cloyingly PC, to the point of stuffing a bunch of gender and minority characteristics into one character in a way that felt more political than integral. But one reads for story, not politics, and Superlative has the former in spades. Hope to see a sequel.

  • A boring read

    Maybe this kind of story just isn't my sort of thing, but it's just too boring for me. I had to force myself just to keep reading it.

    I give it 3 stars just because I appreciate the world building, and this story clearly took some time to make and the author tried hard, unlike other games like Zombien.

  • Good

    This wasn’t bad at all. It was very lengthy and even though doesn’t have a very high replay value it does have enough. The story was good and well written. Somewhat meaningless choices and there’s an error with one of the epilogues.
    Even though I died it was showing me alive at the end of the game. I say it’s worth it.
