Superworld – The Deadly Devices of Doctor Dread

Five local super heroes had recently appeared in San Francisco and registered with The Federal Organization for the Registration and Certification of Exotics (FORCE). All of them had gotten beepers from the organization and, on Friday, August 24, 1984, they responded to a beeper message from the organization and arrived at the regional headquarters around dusk. Doctor Dread was up to his old tricks and they were the ones who were supposed to stop it … with a little help from some other superheroes. Would the White Knight, Divekick, Aquarium, Starlight Lord, Ajax, Silk Shadow, and NecroNight be able to help?

On August 25, 2014, I ran a game of Superworld to play test it for review in Knights of the Dinner Table Magazine. I ran the first part of the introductory scenario in the box. My players were James, Bo, Aaron, Logan, John, Nissa, and Caitlin. I’ll be moving the game to 2014 and continuing it with new characters soon.
