- Dear Reviewer:
-
- Steve Meretzky has looked at the role-playing world through cracked lenses
- and the results will leave you laughing. His unique brand of wacky humor has
- found a new home in this exciting product that features hilarious monsters and
- mutant superheroes locked in mortal combat in a post nuclear American
- wasteland. From the wilds of suburban New Jersey to the top of the Empire
- State Building, lead the Superhero League of Hoboken into battle as you
- struggle to defeat the baddest bad guy of them all, the evil Dr. Entropy.
- -----------------------------------
-
- For those who can most easily reproduce PCX files, we have included several
- here.
-
- COMBAT.PCX. - The combat interface features monsters across the top of the
- screen and Superheroes across the bottom. As you can see, Robo Mop ("No mess
- too large") has used a deadly swarm of trained hornets to attack the roving
- All-Mine mines. The fearsome mines were designed for super stealth, but
- due to a greed virus planted in the programming, they frequently
- give themselves away by crying, "Mine! Mine! All mine!" The remaining
- superheroes shown in this screen and their primary powers are as follows:
- The Crimson Tape - This character's extraordinary ability to "Create
- Organizational Charts" makes him a born leader of Superheroes.
-
- Captain Excitement - Converses in such a dull manner that he puts his
- opponents to sleep.
-
- Mademoiselle Pepperoni - Can divine the toppings of any pizza WITHOUT
- OPENING THE BOX!!!
-
-
- You've never seen monsters like these! The remaining PCX files depict a few
- from the game.
-
- TUPPER.PCX - Tuppers feature an air-tight compartment to store their kills
- until they are ready to digest them. Tuppers usually travel in fighting packs
- known as Tupper War Parties.
-
- MISTLE.PCX - Cruise Mistletoes are guided nuclear-tipped plant sprigs that
- can literally kiss a foe to death.
-
- SUPERMOM.PCX - Bred for child-rearing by radically anti-feminist
- fundamentalists, Supermoms have extraordinarily wide hips, massive mammaries
- and eyes in the backs of their heads.
-
- BUG.PCX - The Unrepeatable Bug is a rare but tenacious pest with unknown
- origins. It may have been created during a world-wide computer crisis on
- January 1, 2000, when many computer programs crashed because they could not
- recognize a year beginning with the number 2.
