A 2D old-school style beat 'em up game. Features a number of additional extras.
Do video games promote violence? Does violence promote video games? Does a nice captain promote his privates? Does the chicken cross the road? These are not easy questions to answer. Fortunately BlockHeadFighters does not even try to. It's just a game where you beat up people with, you guessed it, block shaped heads.
There are a variety of moves you can perform - these include close combat punching and the usual. Also, there are other options such as throwing boxes and shooting squares from across the screen. You can erect shields as some sort of defence, while you're at it.
Unfortunately, the game relies not so much on careful planning, strategic placement of character, well timed shots fired and moves executed. The game more relies on getting right in there and beating the heck out of your enemy like crazy. Inflict lots of damage, fast, and get right on with things.
Interestingly, there are two minigames thrown into the mix. Both of which have very, very little to do with the game as a whole. But are nevertheless hilariously unexpected. In short, the whole game is a bizarre blend of action and absurdity and one which these words will surely fail to do justice to. Check it out for yourself.
