Our very own Steve Gonzalez has written up a
two-page review of Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich, giving the superhero RPG sequel an overall score of 8.7/10. An excerpt, as usual:
One of the great strengths of this game was the great selection of unique heroes with unique powers. I was pleasantly surprised at the total lack of redundancy with the heroes. With nearly 20 heroes to choose from with as many as a half dozen powers to choose from, all the heroes were unique. By mixing and matching the superheroes within your team, you’ll find that certain teams possess different unique strengths. A number of missions won’t give you the opportunity to select your heroes or only a limited number of heroes can be chosen with the rest being pre-selected for you, which forces the player to learn the powers of a large number of the available heroes. In addition to the huge selection of heroes available, players can also design their own heroes. This gives the game considerable replay value, although you’ll still have to bring along some of the pre-generated heroes during some of the single player missions.
