Lollipop Chainsaw injects comedy into a zombie themed hack and slash adventure. It's style isn't for everyone but for those that approach it with an open mind you'll found a very unique and wacky adventure. Your character for this over the top adventure is Juliet Starling, a p...

Creative boss battles – Over the top in all ways

Early levels are slow and linear – Style isn't for everyone – Some mini games are lacking

With all the zombie-related games, merchandise, and everything else out there you'd think the craze is over, yet evidently there's still room for parodies that make fun of the idea while still somehow honouring it.

Ridiculous potty humour; imaginative story and gameplay; game makes fun of itself in fun way; easy to learn controls; comic-book feel; like playing Buffy The Vampire Slayer but with zombies

Can't skip all cut scenes during replays; can only play entire level for challenge modes; style of humour not for everyone

New original properties: they're something that gamers lament never seeing often enough. At times, it seems as though the video game in...

The inherent joy of chainsawing zombies; Inventively funny script and soundtrack; Grasshopper's unique style

Lacks variety; Too short on content; Not good enough to support its pedigree

In my house, there was some hype around this game. I had a close family member asking me to request this game for review. It just looked too awesome to pass up, so I made the request.

Pastels and blood; Wacky enough to hold the attention; Sparkle hunting; Lots of upgrades

Short length

Desperate to fall in love with Lollipop Chainsaw? Or perhaps itching to be disgusted by it? Bad news, I'm afraid: either way, you're going to leave a little disappointed. If you're waiting for a scrappy B-movie classic to emerge - as Grasshopper's taste for bizarro Americana and broad-strokes irony...

When Suda51 is involved in a game you know there's a far chanceyou're going to get something that's a little outside the box, perhaps even a smidgeon off the wall, and that's why we love the guy so much.

Juliet isn't having the best birthday. Sure, she's a chirpy, fresh-faced, popular 18-year-old cheerleader with a perfect body and a loving family, but her handsomely chiseled boyfriend has turned into a zombie, and things just aren't looking up.

Some funny jokes and references; Frequent gameplay excursions mix up the pace; Fun boss battles

Too often crude without being clever; Control and camera quirks; Combat lacks depth and finesse

Kevin VanOrd leaves the sucker behind for this video review of Lollipop Chainsaw.

Scantily clad, chainsaw-wielding, freshly legal cheerleader... check. Vulgar-quipping, wacked-out zombies... check. Outrageous, over-the-top, B-Movie quality styled dialogue... check. Disembodied head that acts as both special weapon and said chainsaw-wielding cheerleader's boyfriend... check.

Lollipop Chainsaw is the latest game from the crazy mind of Japanese game designer Suda51 and Grasshopper Manufacture. You play as Juliet Starling, a candy-loving, chainsaw-wielding high school cheerleader who must rid her neighbourhood from an outbreak of zombies, all set to an awesome rock...
