Superhero League of Hoboken manages to successfully combine the RPG and adventure genres to form a quirky yet well-written and highly entertaining title set in a poisoned, polluted, and war-torn version of Earth. In an effort to stop the supervillain (and literal jack-in-the-box) Dr. Entropy, the player must travel through the northeastern seaboard of the United States with a group of would-be superheroes wielding ridiculous weaponry (fireplace pokers, cyanide-laced silly string, and the like) and obscure superpowers ("Increase Foe's Cholesterol" and "See Inside Pizza Boxes", anyone?).
PC Gamer's Richard Cobbett takes one the fondly remembered adventure/RPG hybrid Super Hero League of Hoboken and we all have a nostalgic laugh.
