This game brings all the Evil Dead fans hours of fun with deadites who have taken of Dearborn again...and again. With some cool moves and a bunch of new insults Ash takes on deadites in the past and present. He meets some relatives and some enemies and comes out victorious. This is a great game but see the movies first and you'll understand. 10/10.
Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick is a very cool game. It's fun to play, with plenty of gore, groovy weapons and cool Deadites. You can run around the town, the park, the church and shops dismembering zombified citizens. The one liners from Bruce Campbell as Ash are very funny and he gives a performance so true to the Ash in the films. The graphics are very good in this game, the attention to detail in the gore and blood splatter for instance, is impressive. The spells are fun to use, especially the Possession one. The game play is average, took me a week to complete, but I disagree with reviews who have said the game was boring! The weapons were very cool and there are plenty the to choose from and have fun with, and the chainsaw was a fun tool to use against the zombies. I love Evil Dead! All the films and this game rock! I like this game!
I'm a huge Evil Dead fan and I decided to buy this game in a second hand shop.
Well, I hated Hail to the King, so what do I make of this one?
I hated it. But the graphics are good and the controls are nice.
Why did I hate it. It's REALLY confusing and you have no clue what to do. It took me all day to get through Level 1. How was I suppose to know you had to blow up the strip club with dynamite? That's the game's biggest problem; It doesn't tell you what to do. It's not fun running around confused.
There's only 9 levels in the game. Maybe if it had 20, it would be better.
Well, at least this game is better than Hail To The King. At least this game was playable.

I got this game sent from Amazon for me and it is the best video game I have ever played, BAR NONE. Bruce Campbell has some great dialogue as he storms his way through the Deadites with his spade, chainsaw and of course his trusty BOOMSTICK. This video game retails for about 19.99, SHOP SMART, S-SMART, YOU GOT THAT! So if any of you PRIMATIVE SCREWHEADS are fans of the EVIL DEAD trilogy save your money for this game.

First off if you haven't seen any of the "Evil Dead" films, it is an almost must before playing. I feel as if I am being harsh giving this game only 5 stars. Perhaps it's the fact the game is 4 or 5 years old. The game is short to start with and each level has pretty much the same layout with exceptions for a few. It wields a repetitive feel after about an hour of playing straight. Each level has you chasing objectives around a map, backtracking and making you feel as if you've done the objective a few times before. The humor is a little dry, but still clever at times allowing for a chuckle here and there. Accompanied by great voice acting by Bruce Campbell. The story is an average Evil Dead story should be nothing really that special. There's a total of three bosses in the game that are incredibly easy to defeat. The creppies in the game are cool but there isn't much of a variety. They range from deadites (Zombies in the Evil Dead Universe) and bigger bulkier troll like guys. Each with different sets of attacks and costumes for the deadites. The weapons and combat system is choppy but works nicely with the gameplay style. From shovels to gattling guns, Ash is armed to the bone with an arsenal large enough to stop a deadite army in it's tracks. I still feel the game lacks a few key elements, but don't get me wrong the game is pretty fun but I would only suggest it to fans of the series, like myself or survival horror fans. 5/10
