Amelia E. ★★★★★

The archenemy grudge mechanic got way more personal than I expected, and by chapter three we were genuinely invested in taking that guy down. Unlocking my ultimate ability felt like a real payoff after all those gadgets and allies.

Victoria O. ★★★★★

We played a full campaign in one sitting because everyone wanted to see their hero's ultimate ability unlock. The grudge mechanic against the archenemy gets surprisingly personal by chapter three.

Claire ★★★★★

The chapter-by-chapter backstory reveal had our whole table hooked by round two, everyone was dying to know what their hero's grudge actually was. Unlocking the ultimate ability after building up gadgets and allies feels genuinely earned rather than tacked on.
