Genuinely in love with this one. Dedicated pose button, devastating grab moves, a health system based on cooking meals between levels...it's crammed full of weird choices that mostly pay off. Enemies will sneeze at you. Others will do a little dance on your head to taunt you. There's never a dull moment, and if you do get bored there's 10 secret characters that range from useless to overpowered but boring, with some only having a single attack that makes them blow up immediately and die.

Please check this one out if you love beat em ups.

Game Review - originally written by Spinner 8

Awesome AWESOME game. At first glance you may just think “damn, this is just another Final Fight clone” cause, you know, there were tons of them back then. Don't worry though, this one's cool. First of all, the humor's pretty apparent throughout the game. And mostly food-related. You can pick between a narcissistic body-builder, a hot and sexy Chun Li lookalike, and, uhh, some weird guy with spikes. You have a button for punching, a button for jumping, and a SEPARATE BUTTON FOR POSING. How can you not love this game?

It's a really fun beat em up! There's character-specific special moves and weird unique enemy interactions! It has a great sense of humor, and the dramatic pose button is always fabulous even if one of the characters doesn't get any good poses.
The food gimmick has almost no impact on gameplay so just go nuts with fun combinations.
