Programmer's Pick
Sword & sorcery with a wink, Deathstalker II isn’t afraid to poke fun at its own genre, tossing in amazons, clones, and a roguish hero who seems as interested in wisecracks as in swordplay. If you like your fantasy with a side of self-awareness and mud wrestling, saddle up.

Why Cult
Unlike its straight-faced peers, Deathstalker II gleefully spoofs the sword and sorcery genre with humor and irreverence.
A princess is cloned by a power-hungry sorcerer, leading to identity mayhem rarely seen in fantasy quests.
Our heroes must outwit not only the sorcerer's goons but also a fierce tribe of Amazon women along their journey.
Expect everything from explosive arrows to female mud wrestling in a delightfully over-the-top adventure.
