Bludgeon and maim: The weapons of Fairytale Fights photo

This fall, Playlogic will release its children's-book-inspired hack-and-slash title, Fairytale Fights, for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

Powered by Unreal Engine 3, the game follows the story of four well-known fictional characters -- Little Red Riding Hood, Snow White, Beanstalk Jack, and The Naked Emperor -- as they bludgeon and slice their way through fairytale land. Their quest? To regain their fairytale celebrity from Little Boy Tailor, who has gone to great lengths to steal the fame of the four protagonists. And that's where the bludgeoning and slicing comes in. 

We have a five chapter preview build in the house, which we look forward to digging into. Call us old-fashioned, but all of that bludgeoning and slicing kind of has us hot. In the meantime, we thought we'd share to you the weapons of Fairytale Fights. From candy canes to rolling pins, cleavers to crossbows... we look forward to finding out what it's like to beat something up with a carrot.

I can see this being terrible or hilarious. Or both.

I played this at gamescom and its an instant buy for me :)

It plays like a perfected and perverted version of Castle crashers meets Fat Princess meets Little Big Planet :)

we only got to play 2 player mode and that was hilarious, but my guess is 4 player will absolutely blow my mind!!!

You can find out what it's like to beat stuff up with a carrot by playing Castle Crashers. This weapon list actually reminds me of that one, now that I think about it.

@dexter345

yeah it sure kinda has the castle crashers feel, but its way more intense and detailed, and the possibilities are endless because of a super-ingenious control-system :)

if you have a sliver of fun in CC, you'll LOVE this :)
