    The Game is amazing. It showed up when South Park was good, and the game sticks to the climate. You can feel as a citizen of South Park.

The humor and art is the same, lots of gross-out, offensive, wacky and insane **** flies around in this game, which really brings to up to a hilarious and great status. The callbacks in items, enemies, characters, side-quests will be hilarious to fans and non-fans alike. This game appeals so much to both audiences as I'm sure people unfamiliar with the show will have some hilarious reactions. Scenarios you'll find yourself in the game are hilarious, but I'd hate to spoil them. Just think gingers, Mr. Slave, and sex. The game boasts with classic SP charm, as for the gameplay, and this is coming from someone who cares little for turned based RPGs, is standard, but fun. you have physical attacks, fart magic, special attacks for each class and your buddies (which have some amazing references like kicking the baby, Professor Chaos, and the ending to the 1999 movie). Some items will give you abilities and stat boosts as well. I wish the game's battles were a bit more involved, although everything works here and is pretty equal to traditional RPGs like Paper Mario and older Final Fantasy games. Exploring the town of SP and areas like the sewer and finding characters like Mr. Hankey, the ****ty Wok guy, and others, hearing songs from old episodes, again flexes the shows charm. My only real complaint is that the game could be longer, although I'm sure they wanted to save more the follow-up. (so much hype), as well as the terribly explained fart tutorials. They make sense after a while but the demonstrations early on are pretty atrociously said and might be frustrating to pull off. All in all, this game is worth it just for it being "South Park", although the gameplay is just fine. All in all, a hilarious and very fun game.… Expand

    Fantastic little game. A must play for South Park fans. The story is fun and interesting. Combat is engaging enough - I personally love strategic turn based combat. The gags and the jokes are ott as expected and are top notch. Why 8? Too short, a bit simplistic in terms of what one can do and towards the end not very challenging as my character was OP. Enjoy it.

    The Stick of Truth is an attempt at perfectly recreating the irreverent magic of the television show: it’s a side-scrolling turn-based RPG that looks and sounds identical to an episode of the show.

The game gives you the freedom to create a pretty damn good representation of    The Stick of Truth is an attempt at perfectly recreating the irreverent magic of the television show: it’s a side-scrolling turn-based RPG that looks and sounds identical to an episode of the show.

    In the Stick of Truth, you play the new kid in town, and as such, you get to craft your own South Park character. The game gives you the freedom to create a pretty damn good representation of yourself in the classic cardboard South Park style. Your character never speaks throughout the game, a point that actually aids immersion and becomes a running gag throughout the plot.

    As expected, you are quickly assimilated into the infamous gang of Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny. The plot largely concerns a small tree branch known as “The Stick of Truth”, which frequently changes hands between the fantasy-clad children of the video game.

    You’re quickly let loose to explore the entire town of South Park, Colorado, and the game’s strengths become immediately apparent. The recreation of the town is perfect, crammed with references to episodes and characters from the show. You can spend hours exploring the various houses, shops, and locations in the city, and there are plenty of secrets and gags that await you. Exploration is usually worth it, even aside from the clever humor: you’ll frequently find weapons and items to help you on your journey. The characters you pass around town will frequently say humorous things; the immersion is pretty high, overall.

    The game follows a fairly standard quest system. The main quest contains the bulk of the cutscenes and follows the plot of the game, but there are numerous side quests you’ll find throughout your journey. As every quest fits into the context of the preexisting South Park universe, it all feels very necessary to ensure a proper recreation of the show.

    The gameplay is a humorous rendition of a standard turn-based fantasy battle system. You utilize melee, ranged, mana-based (all which involved flatulence), and power-based attacks against your foes, and you fight most battles with a buddy (e.g. Butters, Cartman, Kyle) that can be swapped out before/after or during battle. Each buddy has a unique set of powers that you can freely trigger on their turn, and as each opponent will have a unique set of strengths/weaknesses, you will learn how to use each character effectively as you play. The make things even more interesting, many of the power-based attacks involve timed events that you need to execute well to maximize your damage. I rarely found myself getting bored of the streamlined yet engaging combat system, which honestly felt more satisfying than most turn-based RPGs I’ve played.

    The variety of powers (based on a standard character class you choose at the start of the game), weapons, armor, etc. you can unlock is pretty staggering. I can’t imagine that any two playthroughs would leave you with the same loadout. While you can only have so many copies of the same item, your inventory is otherwise infinite, a design choice that takes a lot of tedium out of the game. Once again, South Park: The Stick of Truth streamlines gameplay in every respect, and this makes the game move quickly and keeps things interesting.

    Besides turn-based battles, the game is chock full of gameplay twists. One quest is a humorously satisfying stealth endeavor. Another quest portrays the country of Canada (of course) as a top-down 8-bit Zelda-like adventure, and this is recreated flawlessly, guaranteed to generate some belly laughs. Many other quests take the nasty vulgarity of the TV show to its extreme, which is a bold statement to make for a game based on the controversial series.

    This leads me to confidently proclaim that South Park: The Stick of Truth lives up to the funniest, most intelligent, and best moments in South Park history. The game comes across like a 10-hour top-tier episode of South Park with barely a lull to be encountered. The cutscenes are indistinguishable from scenes from the television show, with the exception of seeing your character embedded in them. If you enjoy South Park at all, this will likely be one of the most humorous video games you will ever play, and you are forced to actively take part in some very graphically questionable moments (usually as quick time events). However, if you don’t enjoy the vile, hard-edged nature of South Park’s jokes, steer clear.

    Trying to come up with shortcomings in this game is extremely difficult. One obvious one is that it uses save checkpoints instead of allowing you to save whenever you’d like. This is a minor frustration, however, given how frequent most of the checkpoints are. Other than that, the game is South Park, through and through, and there are very few stand-out moments from the show that are missing here. Even aside from the franchise, the smart, streamlined gameplay elements and amount of exploration content make the game an extremely competent and enjoyable RPG.    … Expand

    Stick of truth is like you're immerse in the south park episode itself. The comedy and RPG is really immerse for me, the only thing that I complained is the tactical gameplay, because to be honest, Butthole's mechanics are much fluent than Stick of Truth.

    [STARTING PERSONAL EXPERIENCE:
    When going into this game, my hopes were not set as high as fans of the TV show would have had when this game first came out. This is because i tried to play it when it came out and got bored after about 3 hours into it. But i decided to try it again, and for some reason, i really enjoyed it this time.
    By the end of it i consider my time well spent playing this game, and got, what i in some ways feel, the experience of being in south park.]

    [MAIN REVIEW NOTES:
    The Level Design even the world design portrays the show perfectly and it feels like you at South Park the small town.
    The game mechanics(RPG) in this game fits well with the game.
    There is a large variety of items in this game, distributed between gear, weapons, and weapons. It even has a great number of customizable items like beards, glasses, and hats. It even got junk items for you to make quite a lot of money from.
    The Objectives fits the game perfectly and feels like something the TV series would do if this was an episode of the show instead of a game.
    There isn’t really a multiplayer or Co-Op mode in this game. Only the singleplayer, with a well-made story.
    The Characters are who you are used to seeing if you are familiar with the TV series, with the exception of your character. There isn't really any need for Character Development as the characters are well known if you know the TV series itself.
    The controls are easy to get used to, and pretty straight forward.

    The Dialogue really fits this game perfectly, I'm convinced the script for this game was written by the same team that wrote for the TV Series.
    The cutscenes are definitely made by the creators of south park.

    The graphics are perfect and look exactly like if it was a South Park Episode.
    I don't think it uses motion capture for obvious reasons, but the voice-sync is perfect as well.

    I encountered no bugs or performance issues during my PlayThrough of this game.

    The Story is great, and it really feels like you're watching a South PÅark episode at times. It’s well made and does the game justice in many big ways.

    The replayability is good, given that there are 4 classes that you can play. The replayability is there as well. It is a set story tho.]

    "9/10 – Fantastic.
    I enthusiastically recommend that you add these games to your to-play list.
    As it doesn't hit A Perfect Score, It is an extremely good game.
    I highly recommend getting this game." ~DeathKillerNOR~ ⚠️ IN MY OPINION ⚠️    … Expand

The dialogues, the story, the characters, all these are exactly the same quality as South Park itself. But there is more. While you might expect Parker and Stone to write a good story, you might not expect that the gameplay will be fun also. But it is. The combat is an old school RPG turn based classic and while this game certainly does not go in depth with its RPG elements, it offers real pleasant experience throughout. The graphics is classic South Park and so is the music, featuring the best South Park songs. Now to point out some negatives, there certainly are not many. The RPG element is not that well balanced and most combats towards the end of the game might get boring and repetitive, but that is a common problem with most RPG games. One thing I would like to point out is the length of the game, it is not great and specially for a full priced game. However those are pretty minor details, overall I was positively surprised with this game. There are no microtransaction and obviously no SJW crap.

This game was a joy to play, and the biggest complaint I had was that the PC version of the game had several glitches and bugs--most of which were just noticeable things that didn't *really* disrupt gameplay. However, there were a few that did force me to quit the game at inopportune moments. This was frustruating to say the least. Had it not been for these glitches, I know I would have rated the game higher. But que sera sera.

You will create your South Park character from the very beginning, which is absolutely brilliant. I really enjoyed creating myself in the graphics of my favorite series. Your character doesn't speak, which I've criticized in many games, but somehow I didn't mind. It's either that I'm a fan of South Park and I simply don't see any mistakes here, or the authors really succeeded in the game. I was also very interested in the story. How to say it. I called myself South Park. It's going to be a lot of fun, but apart from the great one, the story was really great. I swallowed the whole plot and unraveling at the end. This game just combines everything I like. It's an RPG, so you start at zero and gradually improve to a good deal with the best items, there are Nazis, which I, as a Wolfenstein fan, only welcome and for me it is perhaps the best thing in the game and it's all over wrapped in South Park style. But. I love this game. I finished the game on a PC once, but a few years later I bought the sequel The Fractured But Whole on PS4 and I just got The Stick of Truth. I thought that I would repeat the previous one before the newer work, and when I already knew what and how, I thought that I could try to collect all the trophies and I succeeded on the third try. So I went through this game four times together: D Well, just South Park: The Stick of Truth is one of my favorite games ever and I remember it very much. If you love South Park like I do, don't hesitate. This is a clear choice. If you don't need South Park at the moment, I still think that the game is worth considering, because overall, this is a great RPG for me.… Expand

    Unexpectedly cool game based on awesome TV series. The RPG part of it is a bit too simple though.

    A hilarious RPG only held back by it's easy/exploitable combat system, and lack of post game content.

    Este juego es de estos que llevas una sonrisa y de vez en cuando una larga carcajada, es el humor negro hecho un juego, un RPG completo, variación de ataques, clases y misiones, una historia que podría ser una temporada de la serie facilmente. Como contras un menú un poco tosco y una duración "corta" pero que satisfacera a cualquier fan de la saga.

    Traveling around the world of South Park in this game is incredibly fun. This is probably the first game that attracted me so much that I played it about five times to collect all the collections.

    The plot is interesting, the dialogues are funny, the gameplay is awesome. What else is needed?

    The map can feel a bit empty but the rest of the game is just perfect, the combat is simple and enjoyable, exploration and combat elements are nicely mixed and the story even as it gets a bit odd is enjoyable

    I like South Park so I bought the game. To be honest, I don't have high expectation for the game, but I was wrong. Surprisingly, it is one of my favorite RPG games. It feels like watching a long South Park movie and I am cracked all the time.

    The interface is wonderful. You have so much information immediately available to you. Google Maps always has a minimap in the lower left corner, which gives you a good overview of the area. Getting information about people gives you a clear, clear window. Hacking offers a menu with easily recognizable icons, so you always know what your button presses will do.

    Um jogo muito engraçado e divertido em questão dos personagens icônicos do South Park, com base e combate por turnos formato RPG, com missões cada vez mais esquisitas que a outra de maneira boa.
    E lembre-se nunca peide nas bolas de alguém.

I'm really glad Obsidian and South Park Studios didn't try to pad this game out with too much filler. Instead, we're treated to what feels like an interactive episode of South Park where you play as a new kid in town with the power to make a lot of friends. This allows you to immerse yourself in the game's world and enjoy all the jokes, classic South Park references, and absolute absurdity of the South Park universe.

    The game plays like your standard turn-based RPG. However, it's certainly much shorter than most games in this genre which might seem a tad unusual, especially for players who are familiar with this genre.

    The graphics are absolutely beautiful, with an animation style on par with the actual show. Apart from one area that is stylized around 80s/90s era RPGs. Overall still impressive nonetheless.

    The soundtrack borrows a lot of tropes from Lord of the Rings as well as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim which makes sense considering much of your powers are meant to parody the "shouts" you unlock in Elder Scrolls (this game came out a few years after Skyrim so makes sense I suppose)

    Apart from a slightly clunky blocking system, a lack of much side content, and little difference in your decision whether to join Cartman or Kyle's factions. I'd say this is a great game to sit back and relax with. It's short, it's simple, but at the same time, it's charming, funny, witty, and enjoyable.

    My best recommendation is to buy this game at the sale price and not MSRP as the $30 price tag is a bit steep for such a short game.    … Expand

    Great sense of humor combined with great turn based combat system. If you like South Park, you should play this game.

    I never heard or watch South Park in my whole entire life because it was never shown in my TV channels as a kid until I discovered this game.

    South Park Stick Of Truth is the most derogatory but still a great game to play. South Park maybe South Park by its nature and I am not much of a fan of South Park but there are pros and cons that I can say about this game.

    The character creation is very simple and very good for making my South Park protagonist. The combat is absolutely amazing that is both turn based and interacting moves to know how effective its is, the comedy is really good even though there are offensive parts and the animation in the game plays absolutely just like South Park like I am playing a video game while watching TV.

    While they are some very offensive parts like Cartman's faction name which good thing I am from the Philippines. Ally summon assists felt very useless because it won't let me use in boss battles and collection spots like Chinpokomon will always be permanently locked when going to different locations. And a very rude forced name.

    If you are a true South Park fan game then this is one of the great games in the South Park franchise.    … Expand

    Humor to coś, co uważam musi znajdować się w grach, nawet w małym stopniu. tej produkcji tego nie brakuje. Grało mi się sympatycznie, ładna stylistyka, schludna grafika, oraz konkretne charaktery. Nie znam osobiście bardziej kontrowersyjnej gry, która wygląda jak bajka dla dzieci.

    I didn't expect anything from this South Park RPG, but The Stick of Truth is one of the best license games ever made. It's as obnoxious as the TV series, as it should be. The script is made with love and the RPG elements fit in to the franchise like a glove. [March 2014]
