Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People (SBCG4AP): Episode 1 Homestar Ruiner (Nintendo WiiWare)

Rated “T” For “Teen”

Do you own a Wii? Do you have an internet connection? Are you attractive? Then does Telltale Games have a game for you. Presenting “Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People: Episode 1 Homestar Ruiner.”


If you’re familiar with the internet entertainer provided by homestarrunner.com, then you probably have become familiar with one it’s most cool characters with boxing gloves, Strong Bad. His awesomeness has earned him his own game in which he is the muscular star of. And what kind of genre is worthy enough for Strong Bad to be in? Why a point-and-click adventure, of course. Who else is there to bring awesomeness to a rather underappreciated genre than the man of strong and bad?


Control Strong Bad as he is on his quest to beat the snot out of Homestar. Controls are as simple as the genre is worded out. Just point at the screen and click to make Strong Bad interact with anything and almost everything. Point and click to make Strong Bad talk to everyone. This in it self serves as hours of fun just to hear Strong Bad be himself and spout out 1-liners, 2-liners, and bigger-number-liners. It would be highly recommended to do so to make you seem cool.


Now just clicking and pointing is not all that is required to play through the game. You must exercise your sexy brain to solve and or cause problems for Strong Bad to achieve victory in his schemes. Remember, you will be playing as Strong Bad so you have to mold your brain to be as punch-tastic as he is in finding out how to cause trouble for Homestar and other familiar characters.


Almost everyone in the Strong Bad/Homestar universe is here in one form or another whether it be in the main game or side games you can indulge yourself in. You can play with Strong Bad’s Videlectrix gaming system with the ever so popular Snake Boxer 5 and even find the instruction manual to learn the secret code to make the boxing of snakes more snaky and boxing-y than before. Or maybe you want to create adventures for the girls of wonder, Teen Girl Squad.


Let’s not forget about the world of Strong Bad. It’s full of locations and computers talked about when Strong Bad used to mainly answer your emails. Visit Bubs’ Concession Stand for all your concession stand needs (in the game). Walk with the pink rainbow over to Marzipan’s and bother her some. Or enjoy your freedom with no one in the land of Strongbadia.


If you’re a fan of Strong Bad then you will definitely love this game without a doubt. From the characters, to the world you’re wrapped up, to the trouble you purposefully cause…you should like this game. While this downloadable will last you a good 3 hours or so, the time you spend laughing due to well written material might make the game last another 3 hours. And if you’re not a fan of Strong Bad…well, you’re probably not attractive and aren’t cool enough to play this game. Strong Bad wouldn’t want you to play his game anyways if you do not meet the game title’s requirements. With 5 more episodes coming soon, you have time to get plastic surgery and get liposuction to remove the crap from your head to become attractive enough to play.


Rated 4 out of 5
