About Unsupervised

You and your friends were teenage sidekicks of the world's greatest heroes. But now, the heroes are missing. It's your turn to kick ass and save the world!

Unsupervised is a 660,000-word interactive superpower novel by Lucas Zaper and Morton Newberry, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based—without graphics or sound effects—and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination. Which is not as cool as an actual superpower, but you get the idea.

The Omega Responders were the mightiest heroes in the world, defending Earth with their powers—time manipulation, elemental mastery, teleportation, and more. You and your friends were their sidekicks, their best and brightest. Then the Omega Responders left to face a mysterious anomaly in outer space—and never returned.

Without your mentors to guide you, it's up to you and your fellow sidekicks to decide what kind of heroes you'll be. You're not old enough to have a beer, but you sure as hell are old enough to save the world… and have your first kiss. Or your first kill. Puberty just hits different when you have superpowers.

Lead your team, travel the world gathering allies, navigate the ups and downs of public opinion, and confront villains at every turn. Will you smash and fight until there's nobody left standing? Will you help the villains talk about their feelings to understand how they went astray? Or will you turn to villainy yourself?

Meanwhile, government regulation of people with powers grows more intense every day. How will you deal with PARENTS: the Paramilitary Agency Responding to Extraordinary Non-compliant Threats and Supervillains? One of your former sidekicks is already working for the government. Will you join them?

And what will you do when the truth about the Omega Responders' last mission starts to emerge?
  • Choose your powers: super speed, exceptional strength, heightened senses, elemental mastery, or time manipulation!
  • Romance any of several fellow heroes, including an idealistic teleporter, an ambitious rapper, a half-ghost, or a sidekick-turned-government agent!
  • Deal with hero regulatory agencies: fight the power, find loopholes, turn their agents to your side, or work for them yourself.
  • Name and design your secret lair high in the Himalayas.
  • Follow a heroic legacy, or dive deep into villainy!
  • Teleport around the world, confronting villains and uncovering conspiracies from New York to Paris!
  • Customize your supersuit, choose your team name, and manage your fellow heroes' strengths to make them into the best team they can be!

Every teenager wants to change the world. But only you can save it.

Had fun with it but it's ending made the entire game feel like a Chapter One/Prologue and it's end there

This is honestly a good read, and I can't wait to read a sequel.

I have a few problems with Unsupervised. Don't really feel like meandering around, so here they are: 1. Stat checks don't apply in situations where they should matter most. Building a character up to fight supervillains and not allowing any stat-checks in combat with these people sucks big time. The game doesn't have smart enough writing to negate the need for this like Fallen Hero's more limited usage of checks. 2. The game has too many endings with too much variation. When creating an IF with a clear sequel in mind like Unsupervised, you gotta limit your scope in what you allow the player to do, so that the sequel doesn't necessitate double the wordcount whilst giving the player roughly the same amount of time in-game as the original. IF authors already have to write at much higher word counts, spare your players the need to wait an extra three years on the sequel and just remove some branching in favor of more covert factions and storytelling. 3. This game absolutely NEEDS a sequel, not in that I loved this one or found it unique, but to give us the rest of the story. So many things are built up to in this game without satisfying payoff. The villains just attack, there'…
