This one stands out from the rest of the SBCG4AP episodes by presenting the whole game as a movie. Areas that connected to each other in previous games are sectioned off and dressed up as movie sets. For long-time HR fans, the payoff of finally seeing Dangeresque 3 was huge in 2008, but the charm of the game's presentation definitely holds up over a decade later.

One of the best things this episode does compared to the rest of the series is the post-game. Each
Strong Bad* game has an "Extended Play" section after you roll credits, but this one keeps the movie theme going, framing the post-game as DVD Bonus Features. You can go interview the characters about their roles, find bloopers, and even have Strong Bad talk about the special effects!

Strong Bad/Dangeresque: "Brainblow City. A town as hard as steel and twice as gray. She is like a fine lady type: treat her right and she'll make you cupcakes shaped like cold ones, but treat her wrong and she'll kick you in the knees, step on your face with a stiletto heel, take your wallet and totally ruin your credit score!"

Coach Z/Renaldo: "Yeah... your woman scares me."
