What players say
Players are split on Heroes Rise: The Hero Project. Many say the reality TV premise makes choices feel like guessing what the developer wants, with harsh penalties for picking wrong. Others enjoy the improved writing and length over the first game, while some criticize the story as too linear and the focus on gender identity as intrusive.
