I threw a grenade filled with bees at a bunch of martial artists. The bees killed two of them. You have to be wary of bees, as they are clearly quite deadly.
In short bursts, Just Die Already can deliver some dumb fun but its lasting appeal is limited. Finding new ways to dismember myself was hilarious at first, but this grew old (pun not intended) pretty quickly and it was not long before I had explored all it had to offer.

The best chance of having a good time with Just Die Already is in the first few hours. Traveling to the handful of colorful locations and digging for funny gags can be legitimately charming at first, as can the slapstick humor of being compacted to death by a garbage truck. But as you and your co-op buddies work your way through your Bucket List of objectives, you butt up against unwieldy controls and poor platforming often enough that the funny veneer wears away, leaving a gruesome slaughter fest that doesn’t give a lot of reasons to laugh with it.
