Heroes Wear Masks, 5e D&D Version

Poorly executed, and not very well thought out at all. The guidelines for constructing heroes is so linear that it is nearly impossible to create any heroe other than the narrowly defined path. Want a street level hero with lot's of experience? Sorry won't work. Want a young and powerful hero who hasn't learned to control his awesome power? Sorry, can't do that either? This game is a direct reflection of the problem with trying to make actual roleplaying games like video games.

Guardians of Order, and Green Ronin did this idea far better, with 3.5, and the latter eventually had to abandon the D&D system altogether to make it work. Guardian's of Order made it work right off the bat. In short, don't waste your money on this if you want to play anything resembling a non-standardized superhero.

As a preview, it was a bit short. There was little to give the reader any idea of how smoothly the game ran, what kind of powers could be developed, or how characters were even created. I would like to have seen something more like the Stingy Gamer's Edition from the old Guardian's of Order. Altough I'm all about superhero roleplaying games, this one would require me to invest in both 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons, something I'm not sure I want to do, plus this game just to find out if it is any good. All in all this preview was a complete waste of my time and effort.
