Description
On this day in 2013, a young Italian man named Nicola Piro would publicly share on the internet a Doom WAD he made as a joke between him and his friends. Never did he expect this game to go absolutely viral, to the point it got some people talking about it internationally!Grezzo 2: Una Magica Avventura is a very chaotic Doom mod, to put it simply. Yes there are plenty of crazy ones, but this one is so unhinged, deranged, edgy, zany, and straight up BLASPHEMOUS!!!! Grezzo 2 can best be described as every 90’s parent’s worst nightmare when it came to video games, in that it’s “an old school throwback” to when video games didn’t take violence seriously.
The game starts with your main character (whose sprite is literally Billy Ray Jeter from Redneck Rampage) barging into a church and KILLING EVERYONE! After the massacre, Jesus Christ appears on the cross, outraged at the carnage, and the player proceeds to turn into a werewolf-demon thing to kill him… and that’s just the FIRST FIVE MINUTES OF THE GAME!!!
After all that, it’s Christmas Day, and your character is in an apartment that’s not his, and could either play a video game or (I swear this is true) smash his balls with a hammer! Some Christmas carollers show up and being annoyed at their presence, he kills them only to suddenly die and go to… Heaven?! Because of a long lineup, our protagonist is impatient, and decides to cut in line by MOWING IT DOWN WITH A FULL ARSENAL OF WEAPONS!!! God is not pleased, and you could either kill Him, or just ignore Him and dart straight to the gates back to Italy.
There’s also numerous Italian pop culture references that international audiences may not understand, so from left to right we have: TV personality Barbara D’Urso, the floating head of Saint Padre Pio, former prime minister Giulio Andreotti, Pope John Paul II who has tentacles for some reason, game show host Mike Bongiorno, actress and circus performer Moira Orfei, captain Francesco Schettino of the Costa Concordia (probably the one non-Italians might be familiar with), a cybernetic monster showing the face of TV host Amadeus, journalist Emilio Fede, the flying head of infomercial host Roberto da Crema, and singer-songwriter Vasco Rossi. They all appear in the game as killable enemies!
And if that’s not enough, just recently in celebration of the 10th anniversary, Nicola Piro, now the founder of a game company called Giochi Penosi, has recently launched AN OFFICIAL SEQUEL: GREZZODUE 2!!!!
Since the end of my vacation to Italy, I’ve had this picture left unfinished for an entire year! It wasn’t until now that I felt like finishing it in time for the tenth anniversary celebration and to coincide with the release of GrezzoDue 2.
The games are available to download, but be warned that both games are quite NSFW (what with all the vulgarity, raunchy sex jokes, graphic violence and gore, blasphemy towards the Catholic Church, etc…). So much so, streaming it on Twitch will get you BANNED! Don’t say I didn’t warn you!!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!
