With series creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker also producing the game, it's no surprise that the tone is perfectly on point here. It even manages to inject some genuinely heartwarming moments as the kids progress through their reality-escaping juvenile version of Marvel's Civil War, although more often it revels in how committed they are to the fantasy even while infiltrating a strip club or being attacked by paedophile priests. Juxtaposing constant fart jokes and f-bombs with viciously clever tear-downs of everything from Instagram culture to the corporatisation of comic book properties, the game is more measured than the standard episode of the show and never gets too stuck in the weeds.
