Decisions for relationships

Not Exactly A Hero is built on the nature of relationships. Every relationship you have with each person in the game is a source of many different consequences or results.

In Not Exactly A Hero, you will have countless encounters with all kinds of characters, all kinds of people with many strange personalities.

You have a Boss, people still call it a Director. He looks very polite on the outside, but when faced with you, he always complains about how the budget for hero activities is too low. He seems to be obsessed with figuring out how to run the Super Heroes organization better, with as much profit and as little cost as possible. So he’s constantly stressed out and spreads it over to you.

You have a new employee named Chris, who always makes you uncomfortable. Chris is the legendary lousy new employee role model that anyone who goes to work has ever faced.

You meet an Oober chauffeur with a knack for driving people crazy, a grotesque kebab guy who is often irritable.

And many more characters.

There are many relationships in this game that look that way but aren’t. Some people look cold and arrogant, but inside they are warm and kind. And of course there are many people who have the opposite personality.

Of course, in the form of an interactive novel game, you can choose to make friends or scornfully turn away from many of them. However, it takes a bit of thought because every decision in a relationship can lead to different endings in the game.
