First Season of Strong Bad Game Completed, Promises Burnination of Both People and Thatched-roof Cottages

The final episode of the first season of Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People has been released, and is available online.

Strong Bad, the boxing glove-wearing, Mexican luchador-masked star made famous for answering reader’s letters on Homestar Runner, now stars in the final episode of his computer game, titled 8-bit is Not Enough. The episodic, classically-styled adventure game can be downloaded for both Wii and PC.

The fifth episode will see Trogdor and his enormous bicep bust out of his original low-fi game to wreak havoc on Strong Bad’s world, bringing with him a host of classic 8-bit characters from gaming history.

While the unique brand of humour that Matt and Mike Chapman, the creators of Homestar Runner, bring to the table may not be for everyone, good puzzle adventure games are so few and far between that classic gaming enthusiasts will likely be happy with whatever they can get. Luckily, Strong Bad’s Cool Game for Attractive People is a pleasure to play, bringing back memories of loading up old King’s Quest games on my 486/DX2, while presenting the player with some clever and silly puzzles to solve.

The latest episode is available from Telltale Games, the creators of the fantastic Sam & Max episodic adventure game, for 1000 Wii points or $8.95, or you can buy all five episodes for 34.95.  Demos are also available on the game’s site.
