Conker's Bad Fur Day is a humorous action-platformer released for the Nintendo 64. The game distinguishes itself from traditional entries in the genre by focusing on context-sensitive actions rather than conventional item collection. Players navigate various environments using familiar mechanics while engaging in witty, often satirical humor throughout the gameplay. Unique interactions allow for inventive solutions to challenges, including combat and puzzles.
Humorous action-platformer that does away with the tedious item collection found in most games in the genre. Instead, BFD employs a combination of standard jump, run and explore mechanics and context-sensitive gags and actions. For instance, in the beginning of the game, by pressing the B button on the first pad he encounters, Conker drinks some Alka-Seltzer to wipe out his hangover, at which point players can proceed forward. Later on these pads are used to activate a slingshot and throwing knives; to turn Conker into an anvil and drop downward; to shoot automatic, double-handed guns; to activate a The Matrix-inspired slow-motion effect and flip through the air shooting enemies; and much, much more.
