Gameplay[edit]
Middle Manager of Justice is a free-to-play simulation where the player controls a middle manager who is in charge of hiring, training, and housing a group of superheroes. There are several unique heroes available to purchase and train. The player must manage their health, morale and training, the latter of which increases their power and allows them to go out in the field and fight in role-playing style battles. Money earned by keeping districts of the city safe can be invested in buying better equipment for the heroes and upgrading the base's facilities.[5]
Development[edit]
Middle Manager of Justice began as part of Double Fine's 'Amnesia Fortnight' brainstorming sessions where the senior staff came up with an idea and led a small team to create prototypes of those game ideas.[6] The final game is part of a three-game deal with Dracogen.[7]
