A beat-em up with charm.

Death Spank is presented in an unusual manner. Though the game play/mission style might feel all but familiar and over used the rest is definitely not commonly treaded. The first thing you will notice by far is the art style the second the humor. Though by any means this in no way can hold you from start to end it is still definitely charming. You are Death Spank a defender of good from evil and from the just of it you get your power from a thong you wear(don't try to make sense of it). You were looking for an artifact and you eventually obtain it to have it stolen, so basically you are trying to get it back plus finding some orphans too. So basically you are trying to find the orphans and eventually it leads you to the end(this is nothing you couldn't instantly figure out on your own).

The Good.

The humor and unique cartoony art style. Lots of different bad guys, and distinctive places to visit. Lots of weapons and armor and fun exploring to do. Lots of side missions. Addictive enough to get through the 10 or so hours of game play. The controls work rather well and are hardly frustrating.

The bad.

No real variety in missions. No change up in game-play.

conclusion.

Basically what you see is what you get. Go take a look at a video of this game you will be hacking and slashing through the whole game. It wasn't boring for me but I can definitly see it being boring for alot of people. For a beat-em up with light rpg elements the charm of it did keep me going long enough to finish it. Unless at first glance you arn't interested I would avoid but I think everyone should it least youtube a few videos of it as the overall experience for me was fun and not broken by any means.
