K-Tuck of Spawn Kill reviews the latest Action RPG from Hothead Games and designer Ron Gilbert. While the mission structure and action can be a bit repetitive, the charm of DeathSpank definitely lies in its very imaginative characters and world.

I have the feeling that DeathSpank is going to appeal to a lot of old-school gamers. Too many modern-era games try to deliver a serious, intense, epic, and dramatic story with multitudes of plot twists, betrayals, and the like. DeathSpank goes the complete opposite direction. Full of crisp visuals and irreverent humor, the latest from Ron Gilbert and Hothead Games delivers what many gamers want, but not necessarily what they might expect.
