Line 1: {{work}} {{quote\| ''You are Clifford, [[Idiot Hero\|a scrubby hick]] with a penchant for amorality, [[Deadpan Snarker\|sarcasm]], and [[Heroes Prefer Swords\|thumping stuff before thinking]]. Along with his comrades, Clifford travels a twisted path towards his great fate: to be the one destined to "try" and fight [[Big Bad\|Gwar]], the demonic villain whose name is only coincidentally after the 80's metal band. Along [[The Quest\|this path]] your journeys take many unstereotypical routes - such as a [[Battle of the Bands]], DNA cloning, ghost pirate sea ballads, and an infectious disease that sounds more like a cereal. The journey also contains particularly stereotypical routes - such as the Generic Tower, discussions over whether towers are more evil than caves, and the Island of Too Many Towers.''}} ''[[The Sword and ~~the~~The Fish]]'' is a freeware comedic-RPG created by Joel Minty and his brother, Tyler Minty, using RPG Maker 2000. Released Summer of 2006, the game was a huge hit. Featuring [[Loads and Loads of Characters\|a large cast of sidekicks]], over 1,500 maps, loads of items and optional quests galore, this game is long. Nonetheless, its quirky plot and the interesting cast of characters (and awesome music) will keep you dying to know what happens next.

Line 26 ⟶ 24: * [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: Several tracks. Where else are you going to hear a Beastie Boys track in an RPG? ** Special mention goes to Archibald's theme. * [[Cute Bruiser]]: Princess Anna Headbutt. [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin\|Try to guess what her fighting technique consists of]]. * [[Cute Witch]]: Penelope. And she has wings, too! * [[The Cutie]]: Penelope again. Line 33 ⟶ 31: * [[Disc One Final Dungeon]]: {{spoiler\|Okay, so, you've broken through the barrier and are about to confront the madman behind everything. The dungeon is difficult and the music is properly epic. By the time the dungeon is over with, a new character has joined your party, seven powerful demons have been released and you're off to a new chapter...the longest one yet!}} * [[Dishing Out Dirt]]: Sasha's tech skills. * [[Dual -Wielding]]: Zaknafien and Risco Rah * [[Dungeon Bypass]]: {{spoiler\|When you head to the ruins of Roma to save Clifford's mother, you're expected to take the secret entrance into the castle for a standard dungeon romp...''or'' you can just go through the front door, kill the boss and leave.}} * [[Easily Forgiven]]: {{spoiler\|The Curves are awfully chummy towards Clifford when he reunites with each one despite the fact it was ''entirely his fault'' they broke up in the first place.}} Line 40 ⟶ 38: * [[Fake Longevity]]: Mostly absent, though in the original release random encounters were much longer than they should have been. * [[Flanderization]]: Zaknafien seems to get dumber as the game goes on. * [[Five -Man Band\|Four Man Bad]]: Clifford - The Hero Sasha - Doubles as The Smart One & The Chick Line 46 ⟶ 44: ** Zaknafien - The Big Guy (comparatively speaking) * [[Genki Girl]]: Gwen and Princess Headbutt. * [[Get Onon the Boat]] * [[Global Airship]]: Obtained towards the end. * [[The Heart]]: Sasha Line 56 ⟶ 54: ** Anna - Her ''head'' * [[Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain]]: Apocalypso and his goons. * [[Kill It ~~With~~with Ice]]: Quinn and Anna * [[Kill It ~~With~~with Water]]: Presto Mundo's tech skills. * [[Light 'Em Up]]: What Clifford's tech skills mostly consist of. * [[The Medic]]: Clifford alternates between this and [[Lightning Bruiser\|Lightening Bruiser]]. * [[Millionaire Playboy]]: Forgor. His mansion has more people living in it than some of the game's villages. * [[Money Spider]]: This is a traditional RPG. It's to be expected. * [[Now Where Was I Going Again?]]: Especially during the final chapter, in which the game becomes totally nonlinear. * [[One of the Boys]]: Sasha, and this extends beyond her role in the band. * [[Party in My Pocket]] * [[Perma -Shave]]: None of the male characters have facial hair (well, Quinn 'may', but you can't tell) * [[Recurring Character]]: Presto Mundo starts as this before becoming a regular member of the team. * [[The Rival]]: Apocalypso (at least he tries to be) Line 81 ⟶ 79: [[Category:Eastern RPG]] [[Category:Freeware Games]] [[Category:The Sword ~~And~~and The Fish]] {{DEFAULTSORT:Sword and The Fish, The}} ~~[[Category:Trope]]~~
