Explore Superpowers in Victorian London Adventure
"The Superlatives: Aetherfall" is a 260,000-word interactive novel set in a fantastical version of 19th-century Victorian London. Players assume the role of a newly invited member of the Society for the Advancement of Individuals of Superlative Talent and the Protection of the Queen. The narrative unfolds as villains attack the Society's headquarters, leading to the kidnapping of fellow members. As the only full member left, players must recruit new allies and investigate the abduction while navigating a world filled with Martian warships and clockwork monsters.
The game allows players to customize their character's identity and powers, offering options for gender and sexual orientation. Players can harness unique abilities derived from their character's nature or alien heritage, engage in strategic negotiations with tiny Mercurian monarchs, and confront the nefarious Dr. Eisengeist. With the aid of a trusty Clockwork assistant and a diverse team of superpowered recruits, players must decide whether to unite their team or succumb to the pressures of villainy.
