March 2025
It's got good humor and very absurd writing, all thanks to Ron Gilbert. The art-style is stylized, hand-drawn 2D mixed with 3D, making for a distinct look. The combat is decent; there are a lot of weapons (melee, ranged) and armors to choose from, and while leveling, you can choose hero cards that provide bonus passives; combat also focuses on combos (alternating attacks between click and right click) to fill up the Justice meter and unleash a power attack. All quests are quite amusing, as the dialogue is clever and ridiculous and makes even fetch quests worthwhile. There's also drop-in/drop-out local co-op, making the game even more enjoyable, as a co-op partner can join at any moment. The only downsides are that the game can get repetitive after a while, as the combat is not very complex and the quests are not very challenging, but other than that, the game's very fun and a must-play.

DeathSpank is the first of a trio of games I have played years ago and to finally try it on PC, I can say it is a somewhat short, yet fun and silly experience. Full of combat, funny dialogue options, and odd/creative creatures, I can't help but recommend this game to RPG fans that want something more comedic than straight to the point.

Very fun Diablo-type game, but the voice of Deathspank gets on my nerves after a while.

A fun 20-hour game that gradually ramps up difficulty and offers "fairly" clear paths forward. I really enjoyed it for my $2.50 investment (on sale). Humor is silly, sometimes groan-inducing, but cute.
