I never followed the adventures of Homestar Runner and his friends very closely, but whenever I saw Strong Bad’s e-mails or other misadventures, it almost always made me laugh; The Brothers Chaps had an accessible yet unique style of humor that I liked. Admittedly, this humor is a major selling point of Strong Bad’s Cool Game For Attractive People (SBCG4AP), but there’s a fair amount of it for $10, and the gameplay itself isn’t too bad either.

SBCG4AP is your standard point-and-click adventure title a la Sam & Max, and the controls and the gameplay concept are highly accessible. Strong Bad will head wherever you indicate with your Wii Remote pointer, either walking over to a random spot or moving to the item you indicate to pick it up, interact with it, or just provide humorous commentary. You’ll talk with characters to advance the plot, use items on other items or people to trigger events, and compete in the occasional mini-game. It’s intuitive and luckily doesn’t get boring, mainly because Strong Bad keeps the laughs coming, but it’s not really complex in any way and there’s not much to say about it. This isn’t a bad thing, though; it’s how adventure games roll.

The game’s humor is far and away the main attraction of SBCG4AP; Strong Bad has something to say about everything in the game, and more than a few items are there solely for the purpose of being commented on. In addition, there are several other amusing touches to the game that will make you laugh when you discover them; my personal favorite is the way Strong Bad will tell characters to shut up if they’re talking while you decide to talk to them.
