Bonk III - Bonk's Big Adventure

Yay Bonk!
The third Bonk game is simply amazing. Seriously, if you haven't played it, quit reading this and play it.

Our protagonist in this series is the mostly pleasant Bonk, a caveman in an ancient world. I suppose if Megaman lived in the Jetsons' future, Bonk might be his Flintstonian cousin. He can be a bit of a hard-headed lout at times but generally only when necessary. This is of course meant literally as your main mode of attack will be to bash everything with your noggin. Being a bit thick-skulled seems to have served Bonk well over the years as he has battled his way through a couple previous games worth of baddies on his quest to bash the Evil King Drool. Surprise, this is the same quest for the third installment as well. Really bad guys just don't stay down it seems. Originality notwithstanding, the quest works fine as platformers don't really need a huge plot. The setting and art and the insanity of it all together really make the game stand out in my head and I find myself inventing stories for some of the stranger critters and situations.

Now take a second and think about that method of attack. Bonk jumps into the air but instead of landing on and squishing whatever baddie might be under him at the time like say Mario, he will then do a half-flip mid-air and then land his devastating blow WITH HIS FACE. Now tell me another more bad-ass hero. He literally headbutts crocodiles to death. Often. This is part of what makes Bonk so freakin' cool, but it really only scratches the surface. What makes this caveman even stronger? Meat. I'm not sure I even truly understand what happens to Bonk's physiology during the digestion of assorted meat chunks. I merely know that I toss happy, cute, normal-sized Bonk a nice li'l chunk o' steak still on the bone and he becomes what may possibly be an angry roman senator. I think it is supposed to be a neanderthal or something, but his oversized bushy brow looks like laurel leaves to me. I prefer my version of civi... Read the rest of this Review
