Being a bumbling supervillain's henchman is a thankless job. The spandex chafes, there's tons of late nights, and your boss rarely remembers your name. But in this narrative adventure you'll soon discover that - sometimes - even the choices of the lowliest henchman can change everything.

Reviews

“An interesting take on a well-worn genre.”
Polygon

“It really kicks from the beginning and doesn’t stop until it concludes.”
9.5/10 – Digital Chumps

“Its sarcastic, witty and playful sense of humour that ranges from goofy to ingenious is so wonderfully smart that I couldn’t help but at least crack a smile my whole way through.”
8.5/10 – The Game Crater

About This Game


Henchman Story is a narrative adventure where you play as a beleaguered henchman working for a bumbling supervillain.

It’s thankless work. Week in and week out, you put on your purple spandex and get the crap beaten out of you by much stronger, much cooler people wearing much fancier spandex. But the checks clear, and Lord Bedlam offers healthcare, so a job’s a job, right?

Even henchmen have bills to pay, and sometimes, even henchmen can make choices that change everything.





💥 Superhero Satire: A comedic take on the world of superheroes that revels in the ridiculous nature of its setting, and showcases a colorful, comic book aesthetic.

💥 Colorful Characters: Find friends, enemies and even romance amongst a lively cast of villains, heroes and fellow henchmen.

💥 Meaningful Choices: Your decisions directly influence the story - leading to eleven endings, determining the fate of its characters, and if you play your cards right, you might even earn a promotion!

💥 Full Voice Acting: Starring a talented cast of professional actors that have been featured in anime, video games and more!
