A few thoughts on Superhero League of Hoboken
Superhero League of Hoboken sets its post-apocalypse in New Jersey because of course it does. You play the Crimson Tape, whose power is creating organizational charts, leading a team that includes heroes who can detect MSG and bowl perfect games. The comedy is satirical and specific, targeting bureaucracy, corporate hierarchy, and the American myth of rugged competence by making every heroic act a matter of paperwork first. The RPG and adventure hybrid structure supports more depth than the premise suggests, and Trip Force's 1994 game rewards players who enjoy absurdist worldbuilding as much as the combat it wraps it around.
