A mediocre beat-em-up that was at least worth $5
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Shaq-Fu: A Legend Reborn review (2018, T) I had heard of this game, and I was intrigued, but not enough to pony-up the cash for it. I was familiar with the infamous reputation of its 16-bit predecessor, but I had never personally had the displeasure. When this sale-dropped to $5, I figured it was worth at least that much. Honestly, I found the game to be rather ok, but maybe that’s because my expectations and monetary investment were so low. The game is not a fighter like the original, but a mediocre arcade-style beat-em-up. Shaq just beats on the dozens of cookie-cutter enemies that flood the screen. Strategy or technique are not necessary; it’s pure button-mashing simplicity, and I can oddly respect that. It’s as monotonous as one would expect, but not to the point where I was annoyed at it, but it did get close at times. There are health and energy orbs aplenty, as well as power-ups that make you and even bigger curb-stomper than before, so there really isn’t a reason to ever die or even get close to death. It’s not even that long; a 100% playthrough with all achievements plus the DLC should take less than a few hours. The graphics and art style are simple and cel-shaded, nothing special or memorable. The story, setting, and characters is where this game’s meager enjoyment get the most mileage, at least for me. I can understand why lots of people would find this game’s humor sophomoric and even stereotypically offensive, but I am an immature man-child so it worked for me. As you should expect from Shaq, the product placement is belligerent and numerous. I chuckled at the absurdity and shamelessness of the actual real-world products being used and referenced. The extras’ text and game dialogue did have a lot of funny, tongue-in-cheek moments that I felt worked for what they were trying to do. The plot is practically non-existent, but funny enough. An orphaned Shaq grows up as any normal Chinese master of kung-fu would, and now he must save the world from evil demons disguised as thinly-veiled parodied celebrities. So if you ever wanted to deck the lights out of expies of the likes of Justin Bieber or Donald Trump, you’ll at least get a kick out of that. The physical disc-only DLC swaps Shaq out for (no joke) Barack “Dirty Barry” Obama, who takes up the quest to finish off Kanye West. It’s like a mad-lib found inside a fortune cookie. All in all, it’s by no means a great or even a good game. It’s barely passable, and certainly not a notch in the belt of crowdfunded games. But what I can say is this: I paid only $5 for it, and I felt I at least got my money’s worth out of it. Any more than that, and this is just another miss like all those free-throws.

Not a bad side scrolling game
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I loved how stupid the first one was in the 90s and I’m glad they played off of how awful it was in this one. They embraced the cult status and treated it like The Room of video games

It’s a very bizarre game
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.I paid $5 for this game so not much to complain about but the game is really short. I beat it in around 4-5 hours. It has a very comical dialogue between characters. Overall, I was impressed

A good button smasher
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This brings back a lot of memories of the old school side scrolling games. Don’t expect a ton of replay value, but I really like the button smashing part of it.
