American Hero is an adult-oriented interactive movie video game that was in development by Inter-Active Productions and planned to be published by Atari Corporation for the Atari Jaguar CD and PC. The game was soon canceled in 1996 due to the Atari Jaguar failing. The game was pretty much lost for 25 years, until Ziggurat Interactive remastered the game and released it in 2021.

Why It Isn't A American Hero

 * 1) Very poor acting, even from various actors. Resulting in some terrible dialogue.
 * 2) *Jack's "Nooooooooooo!" when he fails to shoot Kruger in time, to save Laura.
 * 3) *Kruger's "Nooooooooooooo!" when he dies from hanging off the bomb while it falls down, resulting it to explode.
 * 4) It is a another FMV game, but there is barely any gameplay this time. All you do is pick from two options, and choose which choice is right.
 * 5) * And also, the game can get pretty annoying at times. Due to the dialogue for the options get repeated over and over again.
 * 6) There is no checkpoints in this game, once you die. You have to restart from the beginning again.
 * 7) * And also, you cannot skip the cutscenes. Resulting in you watching the same stuff over and over again.
 * 8) Bugs and glitches, such as video footage suddenly freezing up or stuttering making the game unplayable. In which results in the player to restart the game.
 * 9) The game's plot is completely strange, and is filled with plot-holes.
 * 10) *Why did Kruger not use the Mind Control virus on Jack and Laura when they were first captured?
 * 11) *How did the Mind Control virus get spread? By water bottles or a syringe?
 * 12) The game while remastered for the new consoles done by Ziggurat Interactive, the video cutscenes suffer from glitchy artifacts.
 * 13) All the retro mode really does is, shrink the game down to a small CRT TV. Complete with some objects you can find in the game (in which can be unlocked via achievements, and exploring new areas)

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Ziggurat Interactive did a alright job at bringing this lost game back to gamer's hands after being lost for 25 years.
