".just being in the world is incredibly fun." And while the world isn’t dotted with citizens going about their daily business like in Liberty City, the world is densely populated with savage beasts and interesting characters that make exploring the world so much more interesting. You’ll find quite the difference in scenery throughout the world – from green grass and flowers to areas dotted with skulls and flames. It just would have been nice to have a map you could access without leaving gameplay to do so. Also much like Rockstar’s crime simulator, the world Tim Schaefer and the team behind Brutal Legend have created is well worth exploring.

You’re given an open world to explore, and you drive around to complete missions and objectives.

No, you won’t be picking up hookers and jacking cars, but the philosophies are the same. Got all that? To make things easier – it’s best to compare the core gameplay of Brutal Legend to that of the Grand Theft Auto series. The best way to describe Brutal Legend is as an open-world adventure title with real time strategy elements and a twist of squad based combat.

Is Brutal Legend enough to transform Schaefer, an unquestioned force in the game industry to a full blown media darling? That answer may not be so simple, but Brutal Legend is an incredibly fun and inventive title that blends genres together seamlessly, giving players a unique, yet flawed experience. Rather than merely getting promoted in the gaming press, the game has enjoyed quite a bit of mainstream coverage including the MTV Music Awards and an appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.

Schaefer’s latest game, Brutal Legend however is a different beast entirely. His past games, like Maniac Mansion, The Secret of Monkey Island and Grim Fandango have achieved cult status among gamers and his 2005 Xbox title Psychonauts is widely regarded as one of the greatest and most underappreciated titles of the last ten years. Tim Schaefer has long been considered to be one of the gaming industry’s best kept secrets. Brutal Legend - Cheat Happens Game Review
