Super T Review
-Could tell the music will suck simply from watching the winrar extract. I saw a stream of final fantasy music that I recognized from the good songs I’ve downloaded. Bad.
-Suddenly, Cloaked Bloke. “Mark? MARK!” –WTF?
-All just a dream? Go to college! But wait! The college hasn’t been built yet! Whaa?
-Cloaked dude returns right after you burst into nervous laughter. He’s a massive puss.
-“If you are reading this, then you must be awake.” No, really?
-Kobold spelled with a C?
-“Ooh! Look at the butterfly!” is Tommy in the special classes?
-Got to the port. It doesn’t let me go down the righthand path. I stopped here. I may or may not try again. Probably not.
-Although I gotta give you credit for good grammar.
Long Review:
Hullo. Earlier today, I picked just whichever RPG I saw from off the list of newest games. I’m going to tell you right now that it was a mistake. Let’s start off with the characters. There’s Tommy and Steve. Tommy is your typical blackbelt wannabe. Or maybe a cleric. I don’t care. Steve is your typical, resident badass. In other words, I hate him more than I hate Billy, simply on principle.
Also, my hopes for this game’s entertainability of myself plummeted when I saw the veritable mass of final fantasy titles in the music section while extracting the zip. Bad. Use nonlicensed music. Or at least music from obscure games, so that not everybody on the site knows your battle theme. I could hear the Tonberry vanish in a blur of scarlet, but all I could see were those goddamn chickens.
And now for the story, if you will. And if you have problems with spoilers… well, don’t really worry, I got maybe an hour into the game before it arbitrarily decided I could go no further.
The game starts off with a small philosophical speech about the world around us and how it’s a pretty damn cool place. Well, thanks. Then you wake up from daydreaming about the world around us and how it’s a pretty damn cool place to find that you were standing in the middle of a giant stone box of a room daydreaming about the world around us and how it’s a pretty damn cool place. Holeee shnikeys. Once you get off your lazy arse to collect your “due wages”, you find that a cloaked figure just poofs outta nowhere and vanishes with your boss. Whut. The. Funyuns?
I also love the bit where Billy shouts “Mark? MARK!!!” It’s like Metal Gear. Heh.
Walk down to the bottom-ish area and BAM! Plot device! ‘Twas a dream! Gawds… I cringed.
“Wake up, Billy! It’s time to go to college!” Newsflash, kid. If you expect to get anywhere in life, you shouldn’t really be living with your parents through college. Actually, if you do, then you’ll most likely be fine. However, if your mum has to wake you up (and likely prepare a bag lunch for you, lay out your change of clothes, and wipe your hairy little craphole), then that’s a sure sign you need assistance.
So, it’s time to go to college. I talk to your teacher. He tells you to hurry up before you’re late. Then I talk to the guy obnoxiously blocking passage to the door like a dozen Whoppers block bloodflow to the heart. He promptly tells me “You cannot enter here, for the college has not yet been built!”
Mindscrew!
Talk to other people, talkie talkie talkie. Find odd quadrangle of people, and bam. Plot device. I forgot about the big, freaking test. Which, it turns out, any fourth grader could do.
4 breads * 50 trun (tral? trey? Imma just start calling them GP now) = 200 GP per week.
365 days per year / 7 days per week = 52 weeks
200 GP * 52 weeks = 10,200 GP spent in a year. Clearly based off of yen, as a fifty-dollar loaf better be some DAMNED good bread, or it’s becoming my projectile during the hunger riots.
Suddenly, hysterical laughter. Okay, seriously? What was this guy smoking the other night that gave him such a vivid dream and such a nasty hangover?
Class vanishes and there’s the cloaked dude again looking at you saying (essentially) “Hey little kid, come over here. I wanna do stuff to you.”
I started clicking on everything I could find in the room, such as the knives on the wall (stuck on with superglue), the chest (inexplicably welded shut), the trees (crude bludgeon?), and the window (last resort).
In the end, I fought him, and as it turned out, he was laughably incompetent. Slice! 8 damage. Thwack! 23 damage! Okay.
And then more dumb crap happened. I wake up in a cell with another perfectly good bail window, but it also just happens that there’s a key to the door on your dresser. Then there’s a chest with 10 GP (as opposed to the 500 GP from Mark, and the 250 GP from the Strangling fetch-quest). I simply walk right out.
My favorite part about the above area was the envelope that said “If you are reading this, you must be awake.” I nearly fell out of my chair laughing.

Encampment! These people complain about how there are no new faces, ever. Meanwhile, they live right next to a densely populated port town. Facedesk.
Now that I met back up with my jerk-off friend Steve, I go to the Port Town. Where nothing happens. This is pretty much where my story ends. I wander around for a while, talk to who I think is everybody (I don’t really know, they all look the same to me), and then try to advance to the next area. Doesn't work.
I apologize for not being able to continue the game, but I sort of lost the will to endure about when I gave that one lady’s son the medicine.
But now that you’ve listened (rather read, but whatever) to me go on about how bad this game is, I’d like to say something about Super T that won’t fill the creator with depression. Grammar.
Thank you, oh thank you very much for having intelligible speech. This isn’t normally a problem for me (I usually select titles from the top 10 games list here), but I’m relieved to see that there’s proper English flowing from the transparent speech blocks. However, Kobold isn’t spelled with a C.
2/10
I gave you that second point back as a reward for knowing your native language.
