"Chainsaw Lollipop" is like many of other Japanese Hack and Slash games with girls in the middle (like BulletWitch and Oneemchambara), but with the visual touch of SUDA51. If you were expecting anything more than that: story, interesting characters, or intriguing dialogue you're a fool for even considering this game. If that's what you're into if you're looking for goofy but entertaining romp through the halls of a zombie filled highschool with a bouncy blonde acrobat, this is your game.

Highschool cheerleader absurdly wielding a chainsaw and carrying her boyfriend's head on her hip. If that's what you're into if you're looking for goofy but entertaining romp through the halls of a zombie filled highschool with a You get everything that's promised.

There are unlockables abound, requiring lot's of skill on the player's part, and possibly a second playthrough in order to see everything the game has to offer. The characters are likable, and the story, while very straight-forward, is highly entertaining with strong focus and a worthwhile narrative. Aside from that, the writing is twisted, truly entertaining camp. It's a good game, though it was close to being great. That is the only real issue I have with the game, though being that combat is largely the game's focus, it is an issue felt from beginning to end. Enemies take far too much damage, causing battles to drag on longer than they should. LC's slower pacing hampers what should have been fast and frenetic combat throughout- something the game would have really benefited from. That is the only real issue I have with the game, though being that combat is largely the game's focus, it is an A fun hack n' slash, but it could have been better.
