From the perilous battlefields of the fourth-grade playground, a young hero will rise, destined to be South Park's savior. From the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, comes an epic quest to become... cool. Introducing South Park: The Stick of Truth.For a thousand years, the battle has been waged. The sole reason humans and elves are locked in a never-ending war: The Stick of Truth. But the tides of war are soon to change as word of a new kid spreads throughout the land, his coming foretold by the stars. As the moving vans of prophecy drive away, your adventure begins. Arm yourself with weapons of legend to defeat crabpeople, underpants gnomes, hippies and other forces of evil. Discover the lost Stick of Truth and earn your place at the side of Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny as their new friend. Succeed, and you shall be South Park's savior, cementing your social status in South Park Elementary. Fail, and you will forever be known... as a loser.
Not for those under the (mental) maturity level of a high school senior or college freshman.
South Park: the Sitck of Truth is a must buy for any die hard, hard core, or sometimes fan of the show. Trey and Matt have worked their satirical, poignant magic into a story and delivery that is top notch. Allowing the developers to use art assets directly from the show allows the game to feel almost as if you are watching the show instead of playing a game. However, the story was clearly the ultimate goal of the game, with little evident thought given to replayability of the actual game. Standard JRPG, turn based combat is the name of the game here, with little added to differentiate it from any other current RPG.
