Find out in Powerless - The Interactive Doomsday Simulator. Explore London after a catastrophic solar flare plunges the city into darkness and renders all electronic devices and transport useless. Try and keep your Personas alive as you face the elements without help from the digital world.
Powerless is an interactive fiction game which explores how electricity dominates our society and how much we would struggle without it.
Without electricity, how will you communicate? Without power, how will hospitals look after patients? Without running water, how will anyone survive?
Filled with exciting survival situations, Powerless will test your knowledge of the natural world and push the limits of what you believe society is capable of.
Adventures include:
- Land a helicopter during a solar storm
- Deliver a baby without medical help
- Fight a wounded gorilla
- Join the army and become a sniper
- Escape from a prison
- Build a battery from scratch
...and many more.
Each challenge is narrated via an interactive story where you control every action. Will your choices help save lives or put your own in danger? The choice is yours.
As you move through the levels of Powerless, you will gain a Survival Rating based on how you behave in each level. Are you honest or will you lie to survive? Are you brave or will you avoid danger at all costs? Are you resourceful or are you clueless when it comes to survival? Will you help others, or will you only help yourself? As your rating improves, new adventures and Personas will be unlocked, it's up to you how you behave, but there will be consequences.
Highlights
* Explore 16 levels of Interactive Fiction.
* Each level is an opportunity to improve your Survival Rating.

Throughout Powerless you will be guided by our A.I named MAUDE (Mobile Assessment Unit of Doomsday Events).
Answer MAUDE's psychological profiling questions and she will assign you different Londoners to test your metal in an apocalyptic London without electricity. Work your way through the levels with each Persona to see if you can become a survival master and complete the game.

This game is normally right up my alley. Tense decisions with uncertain consequences in the future, interesting enough scenarios, and a cool AI that evaluates you between acts.
There is just one problem: It is so buggy that it is unplayable. I'll be trying to get a refund if it's still possible.
When the AI grades you on your various characteristics, your stats can get trashed by you trying to survive the game's more difficult scenarios. I went from max altruism and such to 0 in all but one stat simply because of how many times I died trying different paths (that I normally wouldn't take) in a desperate attempt to survive with one of the characters. Alternate endings you can "try for fun" as suggested by the AI will also permanently affect your grade heavily. I felt baited and then punished for trying an alternate route I had avoided for good reason.
But that's not even the main problem. The game is filled with soft-locks and event-breaking bugs. Items and past events aren't remembered correctly, and when I got through those I ended up staring at a screen of a character's face after their chapter ended, unable to move on and staring down my only option of completely nuking my save data and starting over from scratch. The game is a few years old now, so while I will not say it's impossible that these issues will be fixed some day, I'm also not counting on it.
I knew I took a risk when I picked up a game with no reviews. Well, consider the risk taken for you. Don't get this game. It's basically not playable in its current state, and that's a huge shame. I was very close to being heavily rewarded for being the first to break the ice on this one.
If the Developers still care about this game experience I'm happy to help pinpoint issues/get in contact.
