Do you hate games that don't take themselves seriously, that have humor or graphics that haven't aged well, or that deal with adult themes in a haphazard way? Then do NOT buy Lula: The Sexy Empire. If however, you want a game with surprisingly fun strategy that changes things up before it gets too boring, has classic art in the form of Carsten Wieland's efforts, and generally treats it's subject matter as something to poke fun at, then I recommend giving Lula a try. The art is fun, if dated and pixelated. It's definitely of Carsten Wieland's style and looks like it could fit in an adult MAD magazine without trouble. The gameplay is interesting and fun, though there isn't a whole lot of challenge or replay value, it's a good diversion, but not going to replace Civilization or Total Annihilation. It changes up between 3 different "levels" with similar goals (making a lot of money) but very different mechanics in getting there. The humor is definitely immature. This is, again, like MAD magazine. You get fart jokes and meta-humor through poking fun at bad dubs and porn music (You can make the music in your videos a waltz if you wish). This isn't going to be something you fall over laughing about, but if you enjoy immature humor you're going to get a few titters and be amused through quite a lot of the game. My recommendation is to buy the game if you're not easily offended and in touch with your inner teenager. It's a good game, just not a great one. It has good gameplay, humor, and art, all while treating itself as a very non-serious game.
It's just awesome. Thats all I need to say about that.
