The initial team also includes Tropical Oil Man (capable of raising the cholesterol level of his opponents), Robomop (an intelligent kitchen appliance capable of cleaning up almost any mess), Iron Tummy (capable of eating spicy foods without any distress), Captain Excitement (whose 'aura of lethargy and dullness' can put many opponents to sleep instantly), and Mademoiselle Pepperoni (capable of seeing inside a pizza box without even opening it). The player takes on the role of the Crimson Tape, the new leader of the Superhero League of Hoboken, imbued with the amazing power to Create Organizational Charts. Almost the entire area is covered by water, and dangerous mutants roam the wasteland.

Toxic pollution and war have reduced the United States to a state of anarchy, except for the occasional city-state. Combat is switchable between turn based or real time but you can't actually move your characters (melee walk up to whatever target you select) so it's really clunky but still neat.Superhero League of Hoboken is a hybrid of adventure and role-playing, set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland in the Northeastern United States. Best of all you can fully abuse D&D spells like Teleport or fly to finish some levels in literally seconds if you know what to do. Tons of secrets in every level, treasure to find, special items to boost your characters or give bonuses on the strategy map. The strategic army battles are kind of shit, you just send units against each other but there's a huge exploit with archers where you can fire and move and the enemy can't catch you.Īdventure mode was indeed awesome, it's literally D&D ported into the Doom engine. Gets very complex on the expert settings. Can also bribe minor factions and heroes to become your vassal and join you and stuff.

The strategy map is like a kind of Crusader Kings-ish system where you can own land but other sides can own the different holdings on your land, so you need to take political actions in order to gain full control of your own land and anything you conquer.

It's one of those Windows 3.1 / 95 games that were released right after the age of DOS ended, so they were extremely reliant upon the limited Windows-compliant hardware of the time to run. I haven't been successful at getting it to run since then.

You can level them up, but not create them from scratch. The downsides I recall other than the UI in the strategy mode was that you could not create your character. There were spells to use in your realm in strategy mode as well. Spells and skills were classic D&D, though I don't recall any specific ruleset being used. Turn-based would have been better, of course, but it was functional. However, the camera will pan back and you can see your party and give them orders. Real time combat was similar to Eye of the Beholder. You would basically navigate a dungeon in first person blobber format, then engage in combat in real time. The UI felt a bit clunky, but I had little experience in 4x games at the time, so that might have been a factor.Īdventure mode was awesome, as this was the RPG portion of the game. I dabbled with the more advanced options and they reminded me of Lords of the Realm 2 at the time. The Advanced mode turns on more options for controlling your economy and other aspects of your rule. The Basic mode allows you to ignore the economic and diplomatic needs of your chosen nation and just focus on the Adventures and Battles. I liked it quite a bit at the time, and pretty much played it on 'Basic' mode because I was young and stupid.
