The Tick is a humorous beat 'em up based on the comic and animated series. It spices up its traditional gameplay with tons of superhero parodies and bonus stages.
IT'S NIGHT IN THE CITY, AND THERE'S A NEW SUPERHERO IN TOWN!
As The Tick, you have power and abilities unknown to mortal men (After all, you are a 7 foot tall, 400 pound Arachnid.) You're strong enough to use the city as your personal gym without a care in the world... until those pesky ninjas, hoods and clowns pick you as their target! It's time to jump into action and destroy these bad guys once and for all!
This game is based off the cartoon show, which was based off a comic series.
This game is a strong contender for Worst Enemy Variety in a Brawler.

The Tick is painful to play. It has some of the worst enemy variety ever. I hope you like fighting ninjas. The optional bosses are bizarre but have poor design, while the jumping sections are boring and kill the pace. The graphics are fluid but otherwise unimpressive, and the music is grating and sparse.
