About
Foul Play is a beat'em up in which players control Baron Dashforth, a daemon hunter who is the lead character of a stage play. Along with his sidekick Scampwick, he battles supernatural monsters on-stage in a theatre where something has gone terribly wrong. The game is presented as a Vaudevillian performance, with an audience reacting to the demon-slaying action. It also has a nice parry/grab mechanics which works especially well in the air. But it's a foul play to make the game sooo lengthy.
