Description

The Golden Age of heroes is over, but you're just beginning. Will you use your powers to help the world or help yourself? Set on a near-future Earth that has been irrevocably altered by the arrival of superhumans, the world has been dealing with a radical shift in the nature of humanity. For thirty years, those with world-altering powers - referred to as capes - have been at the forefront of the world's media. There has been heroes, there has been villains, and there has been world-shattering confrontations when those two groups came into contact. For a time, those individuals walked the world like modern deities. For a time, it was good.
But things change. Given time, all things resolve to entropy.
The Golden Age is over. The player, a member of the newest graduating class of an international academy for powered individuals, needs to find their place in this new world, and whether that place will be determined by their own hand - or by the machinations of others. Assigned to the troubled Paradigm City, it'll be up to the player to determine whether their name becomes a byword for fame or infamy, idealism or pragmatism, and loyalty or ambition.

Paradigm City Reviews

Awesome

HPJoker on

United States

No bugs, gripping story, wonderful game. 10/10

Unexpected surprise

Mr.jcury on

United States

With the quality of latest hosted games I didn't have much hope for this one but it surprised me. It was well written and the story was pretty good. I actually enjoyed it very much. Doesn't have a very high replay value however it is lengthy and well executed. Worth every penny. I don't think there'll be a sequel but I would love to see one

Worth a play

Chiromom3 on

United States

Entertaining and I enjoyed the idea behind it but there's no replay value. It doesn't seem like my choices really mattered, the ending left me unfulfilled, and I had many unanswered questions at the end. Hoping for a better sequel, as I would definitely play it. Like I said, worth a play for something to do but don't expect anything superb.

Bitter disappointment

Unidraconus on

United States

Really 2.5 but you have to round up in math. The hope was heroes. The story was choppy. Narrative mostly past tense. Still reading but will change my review if it gets any better. Hard to care about the story.

A slog to get through

Ivey2 on

United States

The author's personal ideologies and political views bleed through heavily, even affecting the player character, to the point where it feels like I'm reading someone else's play through of a Choice game.

A disappointment

Marcster1 on

United States

While this game did a good job of having an interesting plot. It ends on such an abrupt note that it feels like it got rushed out.

Same as everything else

#1 Stripper on

United States

Most new hosted games coming out are just rebranded versions of old ones, this is true for this game as well. This had the opportunity to be new and unique but is the same as every other super hero movie, book, or game. Your choices (I'm being generous with 'choice') have no effect on the story or other characters, and there is almost no action in it.

Needless profanity will be offensive to some

Hopeingod on

United States

After enjoying many hosted games I made the mistake of not checking the content advisory on profanity. Characters not only frequently use scatological terms (less offensive as it fits their bitter personalities), but why all the awkwardly forced religious profanity that is blatantly offensive to readers with a religious background? The story has nothing to do with religion so why does the author feel compelled for characters to offend people of faith?

Not really much choice

Can't dind a name on

United States

The story is okish, but the main character doesn't feel like me, the ideals of the character are already set in stone. The story grabbed my interest since I finally have electricity powers but what does that matter when I can't get creative with them. The stat screen hardly even matters, the stats are only used a few times. I'm not sure if "Hero Rise" spoiled me, but this was a story not a multiple choice path where I was personally in the world. I say this is a pass, buy if you want a okish story. It's also very predictable.
