Loved It!

My first review for a first rate game

I don’t review things, but in my fever induced mania perhaps I’m turning over a new leaf. I’ve played lots of excellent Choice Of games, my favorites being the Heroes series, so you can probably see a trend here.

But I don’t know if I’ve ever been as drawn into a world like I have with Superlatives. Weather Control is one of my favorite powers so that helps, and I genuinely enjoy leading a team where other games have only given you the facade of doing so, that I’ve played anyway.

I like the characters, I’m genuinely interested to see what each one thinks and says, who they are as people and heroes.

Now I’m not that far in, maybe chapter 5 or so, but everything is so consistent thus far that I’d be surprised if it took a nose dive.

I’ll certainly review again once I’ve finished but I look forward to playing the rest with great aplomb.

Wonderful!

This game is amazing! I’ve played it through twice now, and will probably give it another go soon. I desperately hope we’ll see a sequel in the future!

Definitely purchase worthy

Engaging story. Worth the price tag.

i’ve been playing choice of games for years and this is my favorite of all. long, complex, well-rounded, well-written, inventive, and compelling. plus, dusk. swoon. i’ll be replaying this one for a while, and i really hope this story continues.
