Enter
Ash, our chainsaw-wielding superhero. He finds himself convicted
of murder, sentenced to a life in an insane asylum! Though this
horror is much better than what he experienced in the woods, he
quickly learns the evil is stronger now than ever. Deep in the
basement of his new residence, Dr. Vingo Reinhard has combined
modern technology with the infamous book of the dead to fulfill
sinister experiments of his very own! Determined to use this new
found power, Dr. Reinhard unwittingly releases a new breed of
deadite upon mankind! Who now will save us all from these unspeakable
horrors? The one, the only KING, baby!
Let
me start off by acknowledging that that the first two games were
not fan favorites. I happen to love the piss out of both of the
previous entries. That being said, fellow horror gamers, THIS
is the game all Evil
Dead fans have been waiting for!
The
game combines the best ideas of the first two games: unstoppable
action (Evil Dead: Fistful of Boomstick) and phenomenal
storytelling (Evil Dead: Hail to the King) while adding
the missing ingredients of phenomenal game play and a deadite
dwarf sidekick that does your bidding! (I know the second part
was not expected but MUCH appreciated)!
How
about that sidekick you ask? Well first off, the voice of this
hideous little mutant is done by none other than Ted Raimi (AKA
Sam Raimis brother, AKA Henrietta) also dwarf deadites
name is Sam (if you cant appreciate the humor of that your
not a true Evil Dead fan now are you?) Sam helps you fight
your way to a deadite-free world. He accomplishes this by allowing
you to punt him at will to the nearest enemy where he proceeds
to pop their head off!
Are
you sold on this game yet? Need more?
The
game play is extremely easy to figure out. You have your trusty
boomstick (with unlimited ammo!) and of course your hacked off
chainsaw hand. You cut through the undead enemy with these weapons
while constantly upgrading them into more entertaining dismembering
tools. Did I mention that your most powerful weapon is transforming
into EVIL ASH? Yup, thats right, this time around kiddies
you finally get to harness the awesome deadite power of Evil Ash!
As
I mentioned earlier THIS is the game Evil dead fans have been
waiting for! Its damn near flawless with great homages
to the earlier film, even the Rotten Apple Head from Evil
Dead 2 has a starring role in this!
Do
yourself a favor, go pick up a copy of this right now. If you
consider yourself any kind of Horrorwatcher or gamer and you havent
had the pleasure of playing this masterpiece, go pick it up now.
10
out of 10 times Evil Dead fans will FINALLY be satisfied
