Line 5:

'''''Shrek SuperSlam''''' is a 2005 fighting video game based on the ''[[Shrek]]'' franchise. It gained a cult following among ''Shrek'' fans and was used for fighting game competitions.

The game's ~~Story~~ ~~Mode~~ is the only one with a plot. In it, Donkey's kids with the Dragon are still very active late in the night, and when Shrek tries to tell them fairy tale stories of a book to make them sleep, the babies accidentally burn the book. Fiona suggests to the others to tell stories which they themselves created. Shrek begins to tell a story and the first of many [[Excuse Plot|Excuse Plots]] begin...

The actual gameplay though, it's a 3D [[Fighting Game]] with some destructible environments and a meter which you can fill up to execute a Slam attack. A successful Slam makes the target character to be pushed around the stage, further destroying and changing it. Up to four players can fight at the same time.

Line 14:

* [[Adaptational Badass]]: Basically every playable character which already appeared on the movies. Their fighting prowess is taken to ridiculous levels with the Slams, which makes other characters fly all over the place. Fiona is the one with probably the less amount of it thanks to be already a [[Badass Princess]] with kung-fu fighting abilities, with Shrek not far behind. Gingerbread Man and Pinocchio, which have zero, have the most.

* [[Based on a Great Big Lie]]: The bedtime stories told by Shrek and his friends are obviously fake, but are still arguing between themselves that they are real at the end of story mode.

* [[Based on a Great Big Lie]]: In-universe. The bedtime stories told by Shrek and his friends are obviously fake, but are still arguing between themselves that they are real at the end of story mode.

* [[Cute Witch]]: Luna, the playable witch, is fairly good-looking for a character of the Shrek universe.

* [[Excuse Plot]]: Taken almost to literal levels. The story mode fights are, in-universe, stories invented by Shrek and his friends to make the baby donkey-dragons sleep. And they are basically excuses to make characters fight.

Line 33:

* [[Palette Swap]]: Every character has multiple skins.

* [[Puppy Eyes]]: Puss uses this before he charges at his enemies for his slam.

* [[Shaped Like Itself]]: Shrek(the ogre) discusses with Donkey at the story mode's ending, saying that Donkey's stories are making him look like an ogre.

* [[Show Within a Show]]: The ~~Story~~ ~~Mode~~ is a bunch of bedtime stories being told to the baby donkey-dragons. At the end of ~~story mode~~, the adults begin to fight between themselves for their obvious lying nature.

* [[Show Within a Show]]: The story mode is a bunch of false, but supposedly true according with their narrators, bedtime stories being told to the baby donkey-dragons. At the end of it, the adults begin to fight between themselves for their obvious lying nature.

* [[The Dreaded]]: The moment Gingerbread Man shows up in the cowboy story, people on the bar immediately run away, likely already expecting him to start a fight.
