Retro Gaming March 2026 (0 Comments) (link)  Sunday, 1-March-2026  22:33:35 (GMT +10) - by MUTMAN This month's "Retro Let's Play" for March is Evil Dead; A Fist Full Of Boomstick from 2003 Developed with the full support of creators Sam Raimi, Robert Tapert and Bruce Campbell, Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick allows players to assume the role of Ash, the chainsaw-armed hero from the Evil Dead trilogy. Players will fend off hordes of Deadites with several weapons including the shovel, gatling gun, shotgun and chainsaw. Massive game environments include all new Evil Dead locations as players attempt to save the town of Dearborn from the influence of the Necromonicon ex Mortis--the Book of the Dead. After a television station broadcasts the Book of the Dead tape live on air, the town of Dearborn is taken over by Deadites. You play as Ash, armed with his chainsaw, trusty boom stick and other weapons such as shovels, flamethrowers and guns, you must search the town to save the citizens from being infected by the Deadites and to save the town from being overrun by the unspeakable horrors which have spawned from the Necronomicon. Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick mixes the comedy and fun of a campy horror movie with intense combat missions for the most complete Evil Dead game yet. click for the thread!
