Games review: DeathSpank

Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

While the dog days of summer are a seriously slow time for AAA releases, they’re when download titles really come into their own. DeathSpank is a case in point. Created by the gaming genius behind Monkey Island, this RPG offers up gags with its gameplay. The combat system lifts it above some of its big-name rivals and at this price, it’s a summer must-have.
