Deathstalker

“Journey to an age of awesome magic”

Why it’s crap
A musclebound wanderer enters a sorcerer's tournament in a fantasy kingdom where clothing appears to be the rarest resource. The flimsy quest mostly connects brawls, grotesque creatures and exploitation detours, all played with lumbering confidence.
