Description
Brigand Roman and his band of mercenaries set out to recover the Book of Death, a weapon capable of conquering the world. Published by LucasArts, released in 2003 in the United States and in 2004 in Europe. Blends action with absurd humor across 18 levels, featuring outrageous weapons - including an underground shark launcher and the topsy-turvy bomb - and sharp parody throughout.
Asian edition of the offbeat-humor LucasArts action game by Planet Moon Studios, a rare pressing on a tiny Asian Xbox market. The title, valued for its comic tone and inventiveness, keeps a small cult aura, making its Asian version all the more sought as it is hard to find. Desirability combines that regional scarcity with the game's offbeat-gem reputation, prized by fans of atypical action.
Is Armed and Dangerous still worth playing in 2026?
A third person shooter from Planet Moon Studios, Armed and Dangerous follows a band of zany outlaws on a crazy action adventure, where you chain firefights and absurd weapons, from the sawblade rifle to the bomb that flips the planet, against a backdrop of offbeat British humour. The inventiveness of the arsenal, the omnipresent humour and the snappiness of the action appeal to fans of uninhibited shooting and absurd comedy. The dated production and a linear structure bound the ambition. For a fan of arcade shooting or someone curious about wacky humour, the title keeps a preserved humour and snappiness, in a dated edition.
