DeathSpank
$15.00
Released July, 2010
The Pros:Inventive and memorable monsters and locations. Small and affordable - a nice change of pace from a full feature-length game. Whimsical plot / script writing with lots of quirky humour.
The Cons:Most of the side quests are monotonous. Sparkles the wizard is very limited as a second player, only has basic uses, cannot be customized. Hack and slash fighting gets tedious and boring.
DeathSpank is an action RPG available on the Playstation Network and Xbox Live. Gameplay is in 3rd person, and features explosive hack and slash action against multiple opponents as the player attempts to complete quests.

The action gameplay is combined with puzzles designed for fun, but not frustrating. The character levels up to gain more power, and there are literally hundreds of weapons to play with throughout the game as well as hundreds of pieces of armor. The world is massive and seamless, giving the player hours of exploration. When the main quest is complete, co-op play allows several players to work together to clear crowds of enemies.
