Summary: I HAVE THE POWER
Comment: Review: If you, like I, have silently wished & waited for a game that captures the essence and "magic" of shows like He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, Thundercats, and GI Joe, then THIS game is for you! I'm a 20-year superheroics veteran of the sadly defunct Villains & Vigilantes (ALSO highly recommended, if you can ever find a copy and are into superhero-style roleplaying), and I can tell you this game effectively addresses the action, charm, and mystique of the above-mentioned cartoon shows (basically, the pregenerated characters in the book ARE, undeniably, the same lead characters with the serial numbers filed off, so to speak). LUV it!

Summary: A Breath of Fresh Air
Comment: I can't wax poetic enough about this game. The book is a quick read, but it leaves you stuffed to the brim with ideas for what to do with the game. There are all sorts of goodies packed within the system, and the special-ability rules let you model almost any character you can think of perfectly. The system itself is functional without being obtrusive, and easy to modify - the game even gives suggestions on how to add flavor without taking away the speed of play. A great game of quick, slap-down action, or for extended campaigns with a highly cinematic feel. Buy it.

Summary: Fun for kids of all ages...
Comment: It doesn't matter if you're 8 or 80, this gamebook will enable you to recreate the feel of your favorite cartoons, television series, or movies. It may say it's about the 1980's action cartoons, but that's just a tiny bit of what you can do with it. The system allows easy creation of virtually any genre of play and is extremely easy to learn, while not being childish and dumbed down. This is a must-have for real roleplayers.
