Fist of Jesus: The Bloody Gospel of Judas is a hard and hilarious brawler based on the award-winning eponymous short film in 2013. It is a bloody journey of Jesus and his friend Judas to clean up the zombie-rampage mess. And the story has to be told from a miracle of Jesus that goes awry.
The story premise of Fist of Jesus is not strange for players who have ever watched the short film with the same name. Jesus performed a reviving miracle upon Lazarus only to turn him into a living plague that infected all creatures around into zombies. To solve that problem, Jesus turned to his friend Judas. And the only solution is to kill them all.
You play Judas who is nudged to the battlefield with a scared and worry face. While you unwittingly flinch near zombies, you strike and punch anyway. And that is pretty powerful punch, powerful enough to dismember zombies and turn them into blobs of gore. But you have to find the right attack stance. It seems that there are invisible lanes on the battleground and you can hit either environmental objects or the undead foes effectively only when you are at the same lanes. That is crucial, in particular, when you take on those shield-holding soldiers whose back is the only weak and break point.
New enemies keep joining the undead horde through levels. Lepers who explode, cowboys that point guns or wine glasses, gladiators armed with chains or lances, biters, skull-crackers, Lazarus that slaps you with bandage and more big bosses that come out of the myth will mix up in ever-growing horde to corner you and beat you to cough up some blood.
Punching is basic and useful all through the battle. But you still need some kickass moves to get you out of trouble as the enemies you face grow tougher and bigger. Thank Jesus, you can use some holy punishments and Judas skills to stay alive. Against a difficult zombie, several punches are not enough to kill but to stun. That gives you a chance to deal a deadly blow: directly tear out its heart, rip off its limbs or behead it (to offer sacrifice to the god). It requires timing, punching at the red section. And if you can create combos, the god honor you a halo behind your back and strengthened attack for a while. Besides, summoning pointy stars, releasing a blast beam and shaking off surrounding foes are all useful tricks to cause big casualty within your ability.
You will shed blood, too. While you are always outnumbered, youâd better keep an eye on your health bar. When it drains with your blood, you need to get some food heals while engaging in the combat. Break some crates and vases in the environment and you may find apples and burgers that can fill up your health. You will discover different fishes as well. Donât eat, throw! And then watch them take away some green plagues in an explosion or under scissors/blade-like mouth.
Other than fishes, you can use some other weapons such as stones, bats, lances, chains and pistols. You donât own them but simply pick them up from the environments or the hands of drop-dead zombies. When they are dropped or revealed, you need to get them before they vanish again. As short is their effect.
From battles you earn coins, the only currency in Fist of Jesus. You spend coins on upgrades. From health to punch to special powers, each can be leveled up through ten tiers so as to better prepare Judas in combat. Coins are also the only in-app purchases. Fist of Jesus is completely free to play but supported by ads. Buy any pack of coins and you can get rid of ads. And it is highly recommended to support the developer and fully enjoy the game at once.
Fist of Jesus: The Bloody Gospel of Judas is a really great and fun brawler. With its unique parody, satisfactory battle and great details that wrap everything, it wins our hearty recommendation.
