![]() ![]() Lollipop Chainsaw is fun for a weekend, but nothing more.2023 is off to a good start. There is tons of visual flair, but the game is lacking technically with some low-resolution textures and poor lighting effects. The combat is sluggish and cumbersome, the game is short, and the characters aren’t developed as well as they could have been. The game has a lot of potential but needs some more polish before it can sit among the action/adventure kings like God of War, Tomb Raider, and Bayonetta. The game just isn’t long enough to flesh out the characters and story more.Īfter you beat the game there’s no reason to back except for ranking mode to beat scores and unlock new stuff. Juliet is hard to like because she acts dumb, and is weak and selfish personality-wise. Nick says funnier things than she does, but the sayings just get repetitive and annoying after a while. She’s a dingy preppy cheerleader and is the exact stereotype of one. Juliet herself is hard to like and is not as memorable as other females like Lara Croft or Bayonetta. The game is very girly but appeals to men due to the sex appeal and violence. The blood from zombies flows pink with rainbows, sparkles, and stars flying out. Lastly, the graphics are not technically impressive but have lots of visual flairs. Having to kill them is awesome and full of gore and guts which you will see plenty of. Each one has some sort of musical skill from a different genre of music. The 6 levels are interesting and keep things mixed up, but it’s the bosses that are all different and interesting. There are a few mini-games like pole dancing, jumping on zombie heads, and the few mini-games that are level specific, as well as a few chainsaw dash areas. The combat is obviously the main focus because there’s not much else here. If you kill three or more zombies in a row you will a trippy girly pose scene of Juliet and earn bonus coins. You can use your rainbow power to become invincible for a while and start sparkle hunting. These are pretty crazy and funny like shooting his head out of a cone-like topper or swinging him around on a rope among others. You can use Nick Tickets which are special mini-games that use Nick’s head (her headless boyfriend) as a weapon. I can’t go for precise headshots or aim at barrels. Aiming the thing is a pain because it always sticks to enemies like there’s a magnet. The combat is even flawed with the chainsaw blaster. The combat is just sluggish and not as limber as games like Tomb Raider or Bayonetta. Her animations are too long and you get constantly knocked back which means tapping B to recover every time. I felt like I was controlling a giant fat guy rather than a nimble girl. Her chainsaw is cumbersome, and the combat system in general needs more polish. I rarely used basic attacks and just stuck to chainsaw attacks. Basic attacks use her pom-poms, but it takes forever to make a zombie groggy enough for a chainsaw kill. Once you start unlocking more combos the game is more diverse, but Juliet doesn’t feel like the limber cheerleader she should be. You can buy health and other items like art, threads, and music. There are plenty of combos you can buy and unlock at stations. The game is oozing with style and visual eye candy, but is it any good? With this being a Suda 51 game you can also expect crazy out the you-know-what. With only 6 levels you’re looking for a weekend rental at best. The story is pretty thin and not very interesting because the game isn’t even long enough to dish out a meaty story. You must stop a goth kid from turning everyone in your high school and town into zombies. ![]() You play as the sexy cheerleader Juliet Starling who is part of a zombie hunting family. Lollipop Chainsaw is actually quite enjoyable if you look past the flaws. Most of the time when a sexy protagonist is on the front cover you know you’re in for a bad game. ![]()
