  You're going to have a love-hate relationship with Paw Paw Paw. The story is wacky but not necessarily funny, with a presentation that's at odds with itself. The combat is easy to grasp but has a tendency to frustrate. The campaign is lengthy but feels too long due to the repeated backgrounds and long grind needed to handle the abrupt difficulty spikes.

  The action is generally enjoyable. The animation is fairly smooth and there is a dark type of humour in the way your defeated opponents’ heads go tumbling across the floor in a splatter of blood.

  If you’re a fan of the genre it’s definitely worth a look, and in comparison to some games by the same publisher it’s relatively good. Hopefully Ratalaika will step out of their achievement filled comfort zone and expand their catalogue even more.

  Overall, Paw Paw Paw on Xbox is a pretty decent beat ‘em up that doesn’t take itself too seriously and is reasonably priced for the fair few hours it will take to get through. There will be retries and replayability as you come up against some darn tough enemies, but the short levels help alleviate stress. Variety is really good throughout the levels too, but it would be nice to have more moves at your disposal. Unfortunately, the faltering AI companions and unreliable hit detection puts a damper on things.
