If you’re a fan, or a devoted anti-fan, this review isn’t for you. But I’ve long since grown out of it I probably haven’t watched a full episode in a decade or more. Sure, I watched some of the show when I was in high school, rattling off catchphrases with my friends and giggling when my mom got upset with me.

The more challenging place is the one I occupy: those who are entirely indifferent to South Park. Those fans are going to eat it up, and those predisposed to hating the show aren’t going to be convinced by Ubisoft’s take on things. Forgive the cliche, but I’ve never reviewed a game that better deserves it: The Fractured But Whole is a game made for existing South Park fans. Or if you’ve watched much of the cartoon the game is based on, then I assure you, you know. If you played 2014’s South Park: The Stick of Truth - a solid role-playing game spin on Comedy Central’s long-running animated series - then you know.

Chances are you already know whether you’re going to enjoy South Park: The Fractured But Whole.
