Grab The Games: Action Henk

I have two words for you today BUT-SLIDE! And now that I have your attention let me present you the game behind these funny two words. The game is called Action Henk and it is developed and published by RageSquid. Run, jump and butt-slide into the glorious toy-filled world of Action Henk! Become a master of momentum and defy physics as you race against a band of ragged 90s action figures to once and for all prove that Action Henk is the fastest of them all!

With over 70 tracks all set in different environments, 5 playable characters, dedicated grappling hook levels, a whole host of medals to beat, and a full-fledged level editor. To begin with, the first thing I loved in this game is definitely the level design and the graphics of the game. The levels are really vivid, full of colors and each one is different from the previous.

Moreover, as I have already mentioned there are over 70 tracks with a lot of tricky aspect like slides, twists, shortcuts and hazardous environments like lava! Furthermore, another aspect which is really worth mentioning is that not only you can race your friends' ghosts but also you can choose the ghost of which metal you want to earn bronze, silver and gold each ghost will simulate which performance you should beat in order to master each level. The game also features 5 unlockable characters which you can acquire after beating the bonus levels but don't expect an easy ride!

Each level is extremely challenging! The game also has, apart from local multiplayer, online multiplayer where you can challenge all your online friends. The soundtrack is really worth mentioning as well with some really amazing beats. I also loved the intro of the game which really put you into the mode of the game and presents you the main character of the game. However, there are some negative aspects that I have to mention. First and foremost, the game is extremely frustrating especially if you try to get all the medals. Also, in order to completely beat a level it doesn’t require skills just do the same moves as the ghost and that's all.

To sum up. the game is really amazing and fun and I totally recommend it to everyone who loves this kind of titles. Easy to pick up but really hard to master!
