MetaHuman Inc. Demo

It is said that money does not bring happiness, which is probably true. However, money can bring you a lot of things that make you happy, and that’s the reason most people try to hoard as much of it as possible. There are things money cannot buy, but that’s just because they do not exist yet. Hence, if superpowers were to be invented somehow, rich people would certainly unload massive amounts of cash on them.

MetaHuman Inc. is a text-based interactive story that allows you to choose the desired course of action, as well as decide how to approach each situation. While there are no graphics or music to talk about, the experience can get pretty vivid if your imagination does its job. The story is interesting enough to keep you focused, especially since every event requires your input.

Speaking of which, you play the role of the CEO of a huge corporation that sells superpowers to humans. Naturally, this creates many problems after a while, depending on how you choose to run it. By employing evil researchers and crafty warlocks, the government might decide to take you down by force. You can also choose to play nice and try to fix your mistakes, so it all depends on your attitude.

One of the most exciting things about the game is the fact that you have the power to steer the story as you want, which makes it a blast to replay it as many times as you want. This way, new events can be witnessed or avoided, and there are multiple endings as well. Even your character’s name and personality can vary, as well as any romantic entanglements you might enter.

The fact that everything is text-based and there's nothing to help your imagination along can perceived as a good thing or a bad thing. If you do not mind having to imagine everything yourself, there shouldn’t be any problem. However, if you are more comfortable with visual or audio guidance, the long chunks of text may deter you from sticking with the story for very long.

All things considered, MetaHuman Inc. is not for everyone, but it should hit home with a decent number of people. Hence, those who enjoy reading are most likely going to appreciate the game, while those who want more interaction are going to be disappointed.
