Is that my lover in the shower? Maybe. Or maybe it's a large Swedish woman waiting to snap my back in half, sending me to an early grave. Better choose right!

American Hero is completely ridiculous, but it's also pretty fun. Feels like a send-up of classic MacGyver-level TV action shows. Not nearly enough checkpoints, which can get pretty annoying if you have to re-watch sections for minutes at a time and re-make the same decisions to 'choose your own adventure' your way through it. That said, there are SO few games like this, and it is legitimately fun to watch in all its absurd glory.
