I played and enjoyed the first game from Penny Arcade shortly after it came out. I guess I was a bit surprised by its vulgarity, but I enjoyed it. Now, I’ve just finished the second game.<\/p>\n

I suppose that it was a bit of a disappointment that the second one is also <\/em>titled “On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness”. It’s such a beautifully over-the-top title that I’d hoped that they could have come out with a different <\/em>over-the-top title for this one. You know, something like “Spelunking the Cavern to Underhell” or “Deathgrip on a Fistful of Zombie Throat”.<\/p>\n

Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik’s second game is just as enjoyable as the first, and has some minor improvements to the engine – enemies now sometimes flee from battle, and at other times, enemies call in backup.<\/p>\n

If you like the Penny Arcade style of humor, I’d definitely recommend this game. You get to coat a poodle in pure gold, torture Gabe, beat up young lovestruck couples, and inject yourself with urine. Fun times.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
