With the previous Deathspank games, the team admits that the gameplay did not hold up over the course of eight hours. So, the story sounds compelling enough - who doesn’t like magical thongs that can create your own personal nemesis, right? Your journey will entail traveling a vast science-fiction world with inspiration from films such as Blade Runner and family home game Simon. To stand a chance against this new menace, Deathspank will have to burn each of the Thongs in the five fires of bacon scattered around the world. This attempt at bizarre fashion creates the monster in The Baconing known as the Anti-Spank. The title conveniently ties into the games storyline where our hero is bored from vanquishing too much and wonders what would happen if he would put on all six Thongs of Virtue (the powerful items from the previous game) at the same time. The winner of the submission contest obviously has a thing for pork products of some type and hence, The Baconing was born. Hothead Games asked their community for a title to the new game without divulging any information about it. The Baconing (Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, PC, Mac) This is also Hothead’s first game where they are in complete control of publishing as well as developing. This way, the reinvention will give new players the opportunity to get involved with the world of Deathspank without having to feel like they will need to sit through the previous two. Much like the Rapture, the Quickening, and whatever other religious world changing event is coming, The Baconing is upon us and we must get our collective asses back into church and pray that our savior Deathspank can save us.Įven though this is technically the third iteration of the Deathspank series, the team at Hothead wants to allure new players by not putting the obligatory “3” in the title.
