Mini Review Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP (PS5) - A Sweet Return with a Bittersweet Bite

News Suda51's Cult Hit Action Game Lollipop Chainsaw Is Coming Back, Apparently
Yoshimi Yasuda says so
Here's a game we haven't thought about in a long time. Lollipop Chainsaw, developed by Suda51's studio Grasshopper Manufacture, was a PS3 action title starring a zombie-slaying cheerleader. It did reasonably well at the time, and has gone down as a bit of a cult hit. Fast forward 10 years, and one key person says it's making a...
