Stick it to the Man
SCORE: 70
Indie games run the gambit. Some have great ideas, and are mildly
broken. Others could have used more shine and polish. Others are so
impressive they become massive empires. Still others are a little bit
off. Stick it to the Man is one of those games that is odd.
The best way to think of Stick it to the Man is you are playing someone
who is mentally unstable. Not terribly so, but off just enough that they
probably need to be on some kind of medicine. Who tests hard hats by
having hammers dropped on their head?
The characters in Stick it to the Man are twisted versions of what we
know in the real world. Including gangsters, the military, and the guy
who wants to kill himself. Stick it to the Man earns its thirteen and
older only rating. There are numerous adult themes in Stick it to the
Man.
Graphically Stick it to the Man is strange. The art, character design
(especially how they talk), areas, people, and the freaky hand that
comes out of the main characters head are unique. I felt like I went to
an art museum while playing Stick it to the Man on the Wii U.
There is violence, threats, and crude humor in Stick it to the Man. The
main character routinely references his problems. He does help out
others in Stick it to the Man. Mainly to further his own progress. He is
not an anti-hero. It is like he is selfish, and helps others because it
helps him in the end. He can also read the minds of other characters
thanks to a giant hand coming out of his head.
Stick it to the Man has quite a bit of polish and shine to it. Stick it
to the Man also pokes fun at itself. Like having to jump around on
platforms on the way back from work. Stick it to the Man does not seem
to know when to stop poking fun though. Suicide is not a topic that
should be mocked. Many families will be offended by content in Stick it
to the Man.
