So few weeks ago I did a little write up on the DeathSpank demo telling you how much I loved it. Well I finally was able to finish it and I figured I should finish the review I started. When I left off I was talking about how you were on a mission to retrieve the precious artifact. Well you continue to do so and you actually retrieve the artifact rather early on in the game which surprised me at first. But of course after you get it you get jumped and it gets taken from you by the Evil Lord Von Prong.
You then have to go out and try and obtain it yet again while doing all sorts crazy quests, one being unicorn poop…yea you read right you have a quest where you have to get a unicorn to poop and then…retrieve the poop…sounds awesome right? Yea it was. So now you are on the hunt again for the precious artifact but to get to Lord Von Prong you have to rescue a kidnapped orphans. Poor poor orphans always getting kidnapped. Go figure the reason behind the kidnapped orphans is Lord Von Prong. So you now go out and have to rescue all the orphans, once you do you will be able to open up the gates and finally be able to face off against Lord Von Prong to the artifact back. Once you defeat Lord Von Prong you have your artifact and you can now rest easy and relax because it is all over…or is it?
This game is great, it is fun, easy to learn, and the story and characters are hilarious. I dare you not to laugh when you play this game. The only problem I have with the game is that the replay value is low. I can tell you that I had a blast playing this game but now that I beat it… I just don’t see myself playing it ever again. I do highly recommend this game though, everyone that plays it I think will love it. It was totally worth the $14.99 price tag on the PSN, and the good news is that they totally left it open for a sequel, which I would/will buy the day of release. As far as trophies go… they are all very easy to get and you should have any problems with obtaining 100% on your first play through.
Score: 8.5 out of 10
