Many games have funny moments, but they&#8217;re usually found within more directed sequences like cutscenes or scripted events.<\/p>\n<p>Jazzpunk&#8217;s solution is to basically stuff every corner of its short espionage adventure with micro-jokes, visual gags, and unexpected dialogue. The result is a very strange game with an unusual sense of humour, but if you&#8217;re on its wavelength, it works brilliantly.<\/p>\n<div class=\"for-mobile insert insert-label\">\n<div id=\"inject-primis-player\" data-src-primis=\"https:\/\/live.primis.tech\/live\/liveView.php?s=117168&amp;vp_content=plembed39b4tigwxqjz&amp;cbuster=%%CACHEBUSTER%%&amp;playerApiId=primis_player_float&amp;schain=1.0,1!ziffdavis.com,22392450815,1\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>I was about four years late to the party on this one, but somehow had managed to avoid spoilers, so all the game&#8217;s daft jokes were fresh for me.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a sort-of open world adventure game, set in a surrealist landscape clearly inspired by spoof comedy films.<\/p>\n<p>You play as a secret agent who is given a series of bizarre missions to carry out, and while you need to complete certain objectives to progress the story, you&#8217;re free to explore each level at your leisure.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s well worth doing so, as there are countless incidental jokes and funny moments spread across each stage.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"gallery\">\n<div class=\"cols cols-2 multi-dimension\">\n<div class=\"col col-2 col-width-60\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 2\" class=\"scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/bde5cc5da2aaf\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-2.large.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/bde5cc5da2aaf\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-2.534x245.jpg\" width=\"534\" height=\"245\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 2\"><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 3\" class=\"scanlines scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/d145cb428e66c\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-3.large.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/d145cb428e66c\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-3.534x245.jpg\" width=\"534\" height=\"245\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 3\"><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"col col-3 col-width-40\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 4\" class=\"scanlines scanlines scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/d543edfa612a3\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-4.large.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/d543edfa612a3\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-4.356x160.jpg\" width=\"356\" height=\"160\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 4\"><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 5\" class=\"scanlines scanlines scanlines scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/c14e6085add4a\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-5.large.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/c14e6085add4a\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-5.356x160.jpg\" width=\"356\" height=\"160\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 5\"><\/a><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 6\" class=\"scanlines scanlines scanlines scanlines scanlines\" href=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/30b2468a20cae\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-6.large.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pushsquare.com\/30b2468a20cae\/going-platinum-10-jazzpunk-directors-cut-6.356x160.jpg\" width=\"356\" height=\"160\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Going Platinum #10: Jazzpunk: Director's Cut 6\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>Without spoiling things, it&#8217;s a difficult game to describe, but if you&#8217;re in the mood for something unapologetically silly with some truly absurd and hilarious moments, I&#8217;d highly recommend Jazzpunk.<\/p>\n<p>Removed from context, the game&#8217;s Trophy list is insane. Among other things, you need to spray people with pheromones, capture spiders in a restaurant, use a bidet, and apply liberal amounts of lipstick to yourself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"insert-label centered insert lazyload for-mobile insert-extended lazyload\">\n<div id=\"PS_MPU_X_R697EA12E89040\" style=\"min-width:300px; min-height:250px;display:flex; flex-wrap: wrap; align-items:center; justify-content: center;\" data-dfp-id=\"pushsquare\/mobile_web_display\/article\" data-dfp-sizes=\"300x250,300x600\" data-dfp-targeting=\"pos=1,gto=false,experiment=nl-article-mobile-2\" class=\"lazyload\" data-dfp-refresh-direct=\"true\" data-prebid-config=\"Lazy_Load_HP_MPU\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It&#8217;s a very easy platinum. At the time of writing, 54.1 per cent of players have earned it, which is an uncommonly high percentage for a plat.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s probably down to a couple of things; the Trophies are all quite simple to attain, and Jazzpunk itself only runs a couple of hours or so.<\/p>\n<p>It might be an easy list, but for whatever reason, it took me ages to get the plat. Looking back, it seems I played this through a handful of times between 2016 and 2018, so it took me the best part of two years to get around to it.<\/p>\n<p>I think all that says is that I wasn&#8217;t really playing it for the Trophies, but that maybe changed when I played it the last time, as I only had a couple to go.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, Jazzpunk. There aren&#8217;t many games that shoot for comedy and get it right, but this is one that does.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers, Jazzpunk: Director&#8217;s Cut.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>Do you have the platinum Trophy in Jazzpunk: Director&#8217;s Cut?
