Hector: Badge Of Carnage Episode 2 Is Coming This Autumn

Back in May, we reviewed Hector: Badge of Carnage – Episode One, and scored it a favourable 7 out of 10, commenting that “it is a game with heart, with humour and with a main character that’s had just about enough of it all. There are plenty of games that look amazing and play even better, but there aren’t that many that will make most people laugh out loud at so many different intervals. For that alone it should be pretty high on most people’s wish list.”

Well, if you took our advice and purchased the first episode, you’ll be very glad to hear that the second episode, entitled “Senseless Acts of Justice” is finished, and set for an Autumn release.

A poor advertisement for law enforcement, and also known as the ‘Fast Arse of the Law’, Detective Inspector Hector is a flawed anti-hero with a taste for sleaze, corruption and lashings of curry sauce.

‘Hector: Badge of Carnage Episode 2 – Senseless Acts of Justice’ sees our anti-hero hunting a psychopath and pulled down a twisted trail of meat, sin, sleaze, and more meat. The new game promises to be even more crude and distasteful than the first in the series. The adventure introduces gamers to a whole host of new environments and colourful characters from the world of Clappers Wreake – the crime-ridden town in the armpit of Great Britain.

“Hector: Badge of Carnage Episode 1 – We Negotiate with Terrorists’ saw Inspector Hector forced to carry out a terrorist’s demands which involved porn shops, fake drugs and donating to charity. We have made every effort to ensure Hector sinks even deeper into a pit of inappropriateness as the series unfolds” says joint MD of Straandlooper Animation, Richard Morss. “Episode 2 sees Hector really coming into his own as he plumbs new depths in depravity, degradation and political incorrectness.”

‘Hector: Badge of Carnage Episode 2 – Senseless Acts of Justice’ features almost twice the gameplay as the original game as Straandlooper have attempted to create the funniest, crudest and most distasteful point & click adventure game ever. Six screenshots have been released, highlighting Straandlooper’s captivating animation style.

Northern Ireland based Straandlooper are also putting the finishing touches to the third episode in the Hector trilogy – scheduled for release later in the Autumn.
