All this publication's reviews Read full review. If you enjoyed the first DeathSpank, you're gonna love Thongs of Virtue. It's just as addictive, just as pretty, and I dare say it's even a little funnier. PC Games Russia.
Quite simply, the funniest game of the year. All this publication's reviews. The larger scope of Thongs of Virtue makes it a great second entry, but when comparing it to the first, the lack of improvements put it in a bad position. It's definitely still a worthy title, but it would have been even better had there been more time between releases and some much needed improvements were made.
PC Gamer. DeathSpank is Diablo meets Monkey Island, but it fails to achieve the fun of the former or the humor of the latter. It's longer, funnier and more diverse than the first game, so it's simply better. But we really want to see a better character system — or more of that kind of humor in Diablo 3. If you're a PC gamer and you enjoy Diablo and Torchlight style games, I'd still say drop the money down on it.
There's still some fun to be had. User Reviews. Write a Review. Positive: 1 out of 2. Fans of the Monkey Island games will undoubtedly be nodding their heads right now. In developing the game Gilbert has teamed up with Hothead Games, developer of Penny Arcade Adventures, which Gilbert served as advisor on. Diablo meets Monkey Island in DeathSpank as you defeat enemies, gather loot by the mass, rescue orphans and do your best to recover The Artifact.
The resemblances to Diablo are easy to see, as pretty much any NPC you can talk to have at least one quest for you to complete, rewarding you with new gear or other items you can use in your journey through the world. And while slaying chickens, orques, greems and unicorns can both be fun and fulfilling, the game does skirt the edge of tedium from time to time. The amount of gear and customisation does help break up the monotony, however. These attacks do huge amounts of damage and can sometimes make or break a battle.
The variety of weapons, armor and items is another place this game really shines. There are cleavers, swords, sticks, chicken cannons, poop hammers, elemental axes, crossbows, protection orbs, spell orbs, potions and more that all come complete with awesome names and individual properties. Getting new weapons and armor is always a thrill, and it's fun to mix up what you have to try and get the best combination of weapons and the coolest armor.
That said, it's not always easy to compare and contrast your inventory. Although there's a color coded system to see what equipment is best, there's not simple way to compare actual stats. Of course, for the lazy folks there's an "auto equip" option that will put the best gear on DeathSpank, but where's the fun in that?
If you prefer to explore with a partner, you can have someone join your game locally as DeathSpank's sidekick, Sparkles the Wizard my favorite name in the whole game. Sparkles has a few spells at his disposal -- healing, self-cloning, and fire -- all of which require time to regenerate after they've been used, but you can spam a basic purple shot of magic.
Sparkles is a step up from normal "girlfriend" mode co-op but not quite a full-fledged featured because he shares a health bar and isn't customizable. It's not super-appealing to play as the sidekick, so it's doubtful that a friend would want to join you.
Still, if you want to try it out on the PC you'll need to hook up a Xbox controller for your friend since using two keyboards doesn't work. Two controllers work as well, but you need to enable it in the system settings.
DeathSpank runs a lot better on the PC than it did on the console versions, so running into large groups of enemies doesn't cause a lot of slowdown. As before, it's a pretty game, but the graphical settings are limited to screen resolution. To attack you'll use the right and left mouse button, and you tab back and forth between two sets of weapons.
If that doesn't sound appealing, you can always plug in an Xbox controller and deal with the less-than-ideal D-pad for item selection. User Reviews. Write a Review. Positive: 12 out of This game has everything you may want from an RPG: unstoppable hero, mysterious red-headed beauty, the Artifact, powerful villain, terrible secret of the Purple Thongs, legendary blade and the ultimate horror - saber toothed donkey.
It successfully makes laugh of almost every aspect of modern RPG. And yet it is an excellent RPG in all its epic awesomeness. Don't miss this one, but beware of chickens. Hugely addictive, very funny, a great world to explore. Enjoyable gameplay mixed with compelling levelling mechanics makes this game impossible to put down for a good 15 hrs!
And there are sequels, too : Can't wait to pick up Thongs of Virtue. Beautiful graphics, nice music and funny characters and story. Absolutely hilarious game, have a wonderful refreshing sense of humor, and aint afraid to shot a shot or two at itself as well.
The storyline Absolutely hilarious game, have a wonderful refreshing sense of humor, and aint afraid to shot a shot or two at itself as well. The storyline is full of tongue-in-cheek humor, and just the fact that you are looking for "the artifact" is good a giggle.
The combat can get a bit repetitive, but that about the only bad thing I have to say about it … Expand. With gameplay that parodies the Devil, with a green mood and a unique artistic design, this game can be very addictive and entertaining. DeathSpank is an action game than RPG Role has many elements, but does not compare to none because they are too simple and this is not all bad, makes it a simple and fun game. The graphics are very original, mixing characters and 3D maps with 2D objects, and the voices are very good the protagonist's voice is great and is fully optimized.
