Hector: Badge of Carnage - Full Series

What, leave a review? Not bloody likely.

Fun Game. Back in the day.

Telltale, the company that tried to kill the adventure game with their derivative, self-playing, Sophie’s choice-laden, episodic zombie turds, (a formula then applied to other comics IPs,) couldn't write a decent Point n' Click, but they did publish one, developed by a 3rd party. Decent, not great. Quality of life is bare minimum, lacking 2011 basics such as hot spots keys, fast walks or manual saves. The writing is mostly good though. Its weakness is a reliance on potty humour, a.k.a. prepubescent comedy, throughout a sex, drugs and violence-studded story, i.e., one for adults. Thus one personality of the schizoid writer elicits 2nd-hand embarrassment, while their alter-ego inspires some laughs via absurd or black humour. The jerk protagonist is sufferable because he is a villain; playing a brutal, shameless sociopath is rare and can be fun. Also because he suffers himself most of the predicaments and humiliations in copious comeuppances. Also thanks to his wordy creativeness for expletives, insults, cynical quips, or the most basic attempts at conversation. The one thing he is not is bland and boring. Er... the 2 things. As for the gameplay, the puzzles are good. On the not-too-easy side, and on the sensical side. An help feature is integrated into dialogue with a NPC; you can't get spoiled by a misclick. 10+ years later, I remembered mostly the 3rd episode for its gameplay and landscapes. With the 1st episode next, for the grossness of the introduction, then the fun of some later scenes. The 2nd episode barely rang any bell, even while playing, but I wouldn't recommend skipping it anyway. Decent point n' click, though 'decent' might not be the most accurate description. More like... up to snuff.

Hector'un en iyi bölümü. Özet geçmek gerekirse Sam & Max / Day Of The Tentactle tarzı absürd, kara mizah içerikli Point & Click Adventure. En önemli iki fark ise oyunun İngiltere'nin ücra bir yerlerinde geçmesi ve aşırı yüksek kara mizah dozu. Eğer hafiften mide bulandırıcı, zalim, politik doğruculuğa ters mizah seviyorsanız oyunda muhtemelen bol bol gülecekseniz. Sevmiyorsanız da bence uzak dursanız daha iyi olur. Serinin en uzun ve en iyi bölümü, tabiri caizse yağ gibi aktı gitti.

Awesome story

6/10

extremely crude, but possibly the funniest point-and-click adventure game ever made.

Didn't know I needed a game like this, but I'm glad I found it. Dark and very funny.

Crude humor for the sake of it rather than because it's witty...
