American Hero (v0.0.31)

Overall the plot is thick, dialogs are often dump, you die due to single wrong decision (like turning right instead of left). There were so many great games with wonderful plot in the 90’s. American Hero is not one of them. The only reason I gave it 3 starts is to encourage other developers to preserve some old games. Technically the devs did their job to make this game playable but let me repeat my self: if you are not Atari Jaguar fan you should probably stay away from American Hero. It can be disappointing for you. It’s obvious that it’s stitched together from an unfinished product. The choices are non-sensical. The dying and restarting gets VERY annoying at the end. You are thrown into a looping maze with zero clues or logical direction. You just try “left” or “right” randomly until you stop dying. You can stumble across a random person who breaks the 4th wall to flat out tell you the directions, except they’re wrong so there’s still no solution! Finally, at the end, every time you die, you’re forced to sit through an entire 3-5 minute long sequence to get back to the choice.
