GAME » on August 11, 2023
Join the world's greatest private eye/crooked cop in this trilogy of bite-sized retro-style point-and-click-'em-up adventure games, including a remake of the original 2008 browser game Dangeresque.


Overview

Dangeresque: The Roomisode Triungulate is a point-and-click adventure game with the cast of Homestar Runner (Franchise) set in the in-universe movie franchise Dangeresque. It is a remake and expansion of the 2008 Flash game Dangeresque hosted on [https:/homestarrunner.com homestarrunner.com]. This release features new graphics and full voice acting performed by Matt Chapman (Person). Players take on the role of the titular crooked cop Dangeresque ("played" by Strong Bad (Character)). The game is segmented into three "roomisodes" wherein Dangeresque must get out of a jam with his trademark attitude and adventure game logic:

  • Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque - The original Flash game. Dangeresque appeases the Chief by making an unsolved case file appear solved.
  • Roomisode 2: The Intersection of Doom & Boom - The canceled sequel to the Flash game, now finished. Dangeresque must defuse a bomb planted in his precious Dangecaresque.
  • Roomisode 3: Keep My Enemies, Loser - Brand new content. Dangeresque is forced into working security for his archnemesis, Perducci, in the crime boss's restaurant.
  • Roomisode X: Inspection Certificate on File in Building Office - Bonus content released May 24, 2024. Dangeresque Too (portrayed by Homestar Runner (Character)) is cornered in an elevator by bad guys unless he can come up with a clever threesguise so they won't recognize him.

Gameplay

The player has three verbs with which to experiment: Dangeresque can look at, talk to, or get/use any object or character highlighted. He can also attempt to use an inventory item. Combining items is not possible, though Dangeresque will comment if the player tries to do so. The player is encouraged to do as much as possible with a scoring system that counts to a maximum number of points. However, the tutorial warns players that this is assuredly not worth the effort. Dangeresque can fail to accomplish his goals, resulting in unique game over cutscenes. Afterwards, though, Dangeresque is put right back where he was, and indeed viewing the game over screens awards points.

Dangeresque Too is also playable in a bonus room following the main game and later Roomisode X. Unlike Dangeresque, he immediately interacts with objects rather than having three verbs to choose from.

Featured characters include:

  • Strong Bad as Dangeresque: The aviator-clad antihero who fights crime his own way and doesn't play by the rules. He frequently finds reasons he has to jump.
  • The Chief: Dangeresque's unseen boss who's had just about enough guff. He was created for the original Flash release.
  • Coach Z (Character) as Renaldo: Dangeresque's faithful partner. Once again, he finds himself in mortal danger.
  • Strong Sad (Character) as an Electrician: Blocks Dangeresque's progress until the latter can do his job for him. Strong Sad also reprises his role as the stunt double.
  • The King of Town (Character) as Perducci: Dangeresque's greatest foe who now manipulates his enemy towards his own ends.
  • Strong Mad (Character) as Killingyouguy: Perducci's minion who will live up to his namesake if Dangeresque doesn't comply.
  • The Cheat (Character) as Waitre D: The waiter at Perducci's restaurant. Perducci apparently trusts him with his life. The Cheat also plays Dagger Skew, a master cheatburgler and stabby specialist.
  • Homestar Runner as Dangeresque Too: The confusingly-named ally of the "first" Dangeresque.
  • The above characters and others also appear in cameo roles and references throughout the game.

RigRug

RigRug is a retro style arcade game often mentioned throughout Dangeresque: The Roomisode Triungulate. It became playable on June 27, 2024 to players who had completed Roomisode 2 (or had accessed it using a Cheat).

In RigRug, the player controls Handyman Jorge with the goal of removing all the rugs in houses to restore them to their former glory. His main obstacle is General Contractor-Bot who can replace rugs at random or spray beige paint across the room which will result in Handyman Jorge losing a life when hit. Later levels of the game introduce new elements such as furniture that's difficult to navigate around, power-ups that can speed up the rug clearing process for a limited time, or even a second General Contractor-Bot.

Upon clearing the last level, the player is greeted with a victory screen notifying them that "The Feds" have been called and are on their way.
