Show games from the same series

Giants: Citizen Kabuto

Distinctive, stylised art style

A quirky blend of third-person shooter and real-time strategy on a mysterious island, where you play as tiny space-faring Meccs, magical Sea Reapers, and finally the colossal Kabuto. Irreverent humor and three very different playstyles set it apart.

Ghostbusters: The Video Game

Strong, story-driven narrative

A third-person action game where you join the original Ghostbusters as a rookie, blasting, weakening and trapping ghosts across New York with your proton pack. The humor and returning cast make it feel like an unofficial third film.

Family Guy Video Game!

Pure single-player experience

A licensed game based on the animated series where you switch between Peter, Stewie and Brian, each with a distinct play style. Short minigames mimicking the show's famous cutaway gags deliver irreverent humor.

Shrek 2

Fantasy setting

A movie-based action platformer where you swap between Shrek, Donkey, Puss in Boots and Fiona. Brawling and light puzzles accompany the film's story with plenty of humor.

Shadow Warrior 3

Fantasy setting

A fast first-person shooter that fuses guns, sword combat and acrobatic traversal with a grappling hook and wall-running into one fluid combat flow. Crude humor and an Asian-inspired demon-filled world give it a distinct personality.

The Bard's Tale

Fantasy setting

A satirical fantasy action-adventure where you play a cynical, money-grubbing bard who fights with a blade and summoned allies. Its sarcastic narrator and genre-mocking humor are the main draw.

Family Guy: Back to the Multiverse

Linear, curated structure

A third-person co-op shooter set in the Family Guy universe, where Stewie and Brian blast through parallel dimensions. The crude, irreverent show humor takes priority over the gameplay.

Crash Twinsanity

Distinctive, stylised art style

A humorous 3D platformer where Crash and his nemesis Dr. Cortex reluctantly team up. Cortex can be thrown or swung as a hammer, wrapped in zany cartoon gags and more story-driven levels than earlier entries.
