Major update to “Unsupervised”: Defeat the villain!

It’s supposed to be one book but who knows maybe it will get a sequel.

Although there hasn’t been a formal announcement made, the authors have expressed interest in writing a sequel, and deliberately left a few loose ends in this game that could be developed in a sequel even as they sought to make this game a satisfying standalone experience.

Is there a choice to have all powers at the same time?

No, there isn’t.

I’ve had a lot of fun with this game and quite enjoyed the characters.

That’s very interesting! Before we even set out to write the game, we had some concerns that time control would overshadow other powers… thankfully, that was not the case :folded_hands:

Thank you everyone for answering the poll! I will admit that while Super Speed was my favorite MC power, Elemental Mastery was a very close second.

Scenario: Post heroic ending in Unsupervised, a truly dire situation comes up:

A group of extremist dozer users have broken into a military complex and seized a WMD. The WMD has been moved to a popular tourist site which the criminals hold with numerous hostages. The extemists threaten to detonate the weapon, which will destroy a nearby city, unless their utterly unreasonable demands are met.

Time is running out, requiring an immediate response from the MC and their team. Flit will need to teleport the MC and one other former sidekick in to try to infiltrate the site and contain the situation, while the others follow in the Omega Wing, which will delay their joining the effort. PARENTS is providing your team with every bit of intel and other support they can manage on short notice.

Additional hero and special military reinforcements are on their way to assist, but none will be able to respond as fast as the teleporting trio. PARENTS has warned that if the WMD situation isn’t stopped soon, they may be forced to launch a heavy air strike to destroy the site, which will kill the hostages and cause heavy collateral damage.

So with this potential WMD catastrophe with hostages and unknown superpowers in the mix staring you down, who do you want to go with you and Flit?

  • Amir/Lil’ Biggie
  • Lilith/Ghostling
  • Derek/Multidude
  • Thelma/Alloy

Post-heroic ending, another dire situation:

A group of criminals managed to smuggle a large amount of dozer into a massive, overcrowded prison. Multiple inmates have taken the dozer and caused a prison riot right out of nightmares.

Prison guard and local law enforcement personnel have already taken heavy casualties from the newly-super-powered convicts. The prison armory and other weapons have been seized, adding many armed inmates to the riot. Several Eisner and Lee-class villains held in the prison’s maximum security wing have been set loose in the chaos and joined the riot. The first attempt by local law enforcement and heroes to quell the riot has failed, as the super-powered convicts are numerous and proven unusually organized.

The result is a bloody siege, with the convicts still in the prison and immediate surrounding area attempting to escape a hastily-established law enforcement/military perimeter. Civilian hostages have been taken by the convicts, complicating military options. The siege perimeter is holding for now, but attacks by powered convicts are threatening to breach the lines. If the convicts breach the perimeter and escape en masse, it could destabilize the whole wider region. For this reason, PARENTS has requested the assistance of the former sidekicks.

PARENTS and local intelligence have identified a hidden access route into the prison that the inmates have yet to discover. Intel has also tentatively identified the metas in the prison providing the bulk of firepower and direction for the convicts.

If a super-powered infiltration team could get inside the prison and neutralize these threats, then the planned military and hero counter-attack would have a much better chance of quelling the dozer riot. This sneak-attack is seen as the last viable option before either the perimeter collapses or PARENTS resorts to heavy air/artillery bombardment with massive collateral damage.

Flit can get the MC and one other quickly to the infiltration point, but due to the danger of engaging multiple powered and/or armed foes in the prison’s close-quarters, Flit will be of limited help in the fighting. Local hero volunteers with notable durability and ability in close-quarters will be joining the infiltration effort and additional reinforcements are on the way.

With all this in mind, who should the MC bring with them to help quell this dozer-boosted prison riot?

  • Amir/ Lil’Biggie
  • Thelma/Alloy
  • Lilith/Ghostling
  • Derek/Multidude

Hello, I know this is quite a long question, but does anyone know what the requirements are for romantic relationships between Ghostling/Lilith Brooks, Alloy/Thelma Lloyd, Vorpal/Nora Sblaza, and Telltale? Although I don’t know if she’s a romantic option. And what would happen if I chose to be a villain who kills?

in order to romance Ghostling/Lilith Brooks or Alloy/Thelma Lloyd you need to dance with one at the party, for Nora it’s more complicated first you must not kill red harry and you must defeat Blair when he attack the base then you must go first at crazy chris cell, save him then accept to join nora and you should get the option
