[edit] Games from slumber party
- See also Clapping Party
Strong Bad, bored at Homestar Runner's slumber party, discovers Homestar's dad's stash of M-rated video games. These games all feature humorously over-the-top depictions of violence or blood and gore, though as Homestar is not allowed to play them no gameplay is seen.
| Image | Description |
|---|---|
| Blistergeist parodies Splatterhouse with the masked figure on the cover. Similar to Splatterhouse, the figure makes reference to famous horror characters such as Jason Voorhees, Leatherface, and Ghostface. They wield a chainsaw.
The ghostly figure makes a cameo appearance in the unlockable "Blistergeist mode" in the otherwise kid-friendly Clapping Party. In a 2024 interview, the Brothers Chaps mentioned Blistergeist 3D as a game they'd like to make eventually. |
| Blood Bleeder is a parody of Blood. The cover features a bloodstain with skull imagery. |
| Head Chopper 2 features cover art of three disembodied heads — two men and one dalmatian — flung into the air. |
| Scab Wars appears to be a shoot 'em up game in the vein of Space Invaders, while the title recalls Star Wars. The grid seen in the background suggests it may be a vector-graphics title. |
| Throat Rip and Saliva Quest only seen in cartridge form, box art or label faces are not shown. |
