A casual and enjoyable few hours pointing and clicking. There are enough funny moments throughout to make a play-through worthwhile. The bonus adventure is enjoyable too.

Little point and click game, that was made with a lot of heart. Might not solicit any chuckles, but it is a nice diversion for a bit. I would only recommend purchasing at a huge discount, given the length and breadth of gameplay. There is a bit of music and a bit of (public domain?) sound effects, but nothing compared to the extensive assets contained in other similarly low-cost p-n-c games on steam. You will get a sense of supporting an indie developer, but with other chapters already selling here, this first chapter should have been a no-cost introduction to the series.

I played this game on ubuntu linux 19.04 without any technical issues. The game uses a java-runtime engine, and it takes a 130 MBs of diskspace. The game contains a tiny bonus episode, as an extra, which is accessible from the menu.

Hilarious adventure game designed in a TV cartoonish style.

Little bit funny? Yes. Hilarious? No.

The Revenge of Johnny Bonasera is a short point and click adventure with mediocre story without depth, however it has a few funny moments. The gameplay it's the usual point and click (adventures) style of gathering items, combining them and using them in the game, most of them are straight forward (logical ones) and not hard to figure. The art its ok, I liked it. You can beat the game in an hour and the mini game (it contains another short(er) mini pnc adventure in the menu) in 15 minutes. I got the game from a bundle (got it in a trade actually, but it was a key from a bundle) for cheap price and for me its worth at that price. 3.99$ its too much and I don't advise you to buy it at that price because its short and that price tag its just way too high for the content it has. Buy it when it's on sale (max 1$) or in a bundle. Overall ratings (at the moment of writing this review): 66% positive which I think it's pretty accurate.

My rating: 6/10

Very short point and click game, takes only half an hour to beat it. Some silly jokes and punks рissing on the streets, fun times.

There is another small game inside also!

+Nice music
+funny paint produced arts
+short silly story
+good as a silly gift for your friend
+Now with achievements and cards!

Catch it on discount so it would worth it.

Short little point and click adventure

This review is part of my mini-project to review all four of the Johnny games. The Revenge of Johnny Bonasera is a 4-part episodic series by independent developer Rafael García. The series began in late 2016 and concluded in early 2020. The developer has floated the possibility of doing a fifth game at some point in the future, but the series is currently finished; The four games that are out tell a complete story with no loose ends. Each game in the series takes about two to three hours to complete, and each successive game is a bit larger and more ambitious than the previous entries.

The series follows a physically weak but terribly ruthless young boy. In the first game, which works as a standalone title, Johnny takes revenge on some teenaged punks who ruin his sandwich. The second, third, and forth games change course a little bit and follow a whole story arc as Johnny takes revenge on some aliens who have abducted his mother.

My overall impression of the series as a whole is positive. Johnny is not as big or as flashy as many other games; but it doesn't feel like it is even trying to compete with those. I am writing these reviews on Jan 2, 2020, the day after Adobe Flash officially died. Johnny feels like exactly the kind of game that would have existed and thrived as a mega-hit on a site like Newgrounds or Kongregate had it come out 15 years earlier. With the basic cartoonish art style, large and crudely animated sprites, vaguely adolescent humor, and simplicity of design, the series brings me a certain nostalgia for that era of gaming.

This is the first entry in the series, and while I like it, I think it is the weakest of the bunch. I know that this particular entry frequently goes on deep discount and has even been given away for free, in order to draw players into the series. If you would like to buy this to test it out, keep in mind that the best bits are still yet to come. I believe this one was made as Rafael García was still finding his stride as a developer.

In this entry, Johnny is up against three teenaged punks who lightly bully him. He decides to pay back the minor slight by absolutely ruining the bullies' lives. The punishment he doles out is way worse than the initial incident. While Johnny does some real ruthless stuff in all four of the games, he has absolutely no chill at all in this one.

The first entry ends on a cliffhanger that sets up the remaining three games in the series. It also includes a very short but enjoyable bonus game, accessible from the main menu, which gives us some backstory for one of the game's minor characters.

A good choice for fans of risky point & click adventure games. A lot of the humor comes from a certain cynical agressiveness that you rarely see in the genre, which works to fun effect. Some of the puzzles are surprisingly challenging, but it hits a good balance. The biggest negative I'd point out is that some might find the price to be a bit on the high side. If you're the sort of player who strongly cares about that sort of thing, maybe wait for a sale. Enjoy!

Fun little game, worth buying if on discout or as part of bundle. There's bonus chapter at the end of main game.

Funny and short (~1h) point and click game that kind of looks like some of the decent Flash games you could find on Newgrounds back in the days.

On the minus side, the UI is fairly uncomfortable and it's often hard to figure out what the hell you're supposed to do without peaking at a guide.

I really enjoyed this one! I love point/click adventures & games of this genre & found the artwork, audio, & writing to be very entertaining. It is definitely worth it if you havent seen full playthroughs & want to enjoy a cool funny adventure for yourself.

I did find it hard to progress through the game since some of the items are not hinted well enough, & took me a couple of hours to figure out on my own without looking online for help, as you can see in my Let's Play Links above.

Emjoyed it, recommend it, appreciate you developing it!!!
