Sonny is a great flash RPG game that will definitely make you want to continue the gameplay and story with the sequel Sonny 2. It is a easy to get the hang of turn based game where you are a recently deceased man who wakes up as a zombie and is looking for answers. There are plenty of battles throughout the game as you progress from area to area fight a wide range of enemies, from other zombies to shamans to ghosts to the ZPCI which is a group that is trying to hunt down and kill all the zombies. In addition to these enemies there a plenty of bosses to fight that will challenge you to be strategic with your turns rather than just attacking every turn. When you begin the game you will get to choose from four different classes which fall under the stereotypical RPG classes of the warrior, the rogue, the mage, and the paladin. However, the choice you make regarding your class is not especially important as every class has the same talent tree. There are plenty of different abilities that you are able to choose which can help you create whichever type of character you want, from just a plain hit them with more damage than they can hit you with type of character to a extremely adept healer to a shockingly powerful spell caster to even a character who can swap damage and healing with a spell and cause enemies to kill themselves and heal you. The AI in this game isn't particularly good or bad as there are only three different settings for them: aggressive, defensive, and tactical. But there seems to be no great difference between these settings. The story in Sonny is quite interesting with you knowing only what the main character, Sonny, knows but it clearly is intended to be mysterious and lure you into playing the sequel where some of your questions about Sonny can be answered. The game has particularly good music which is very atmospheric and sets the mood whether its at a boss battle or in between battles. This game is not very replayable even though it might appear so since there are four different classes. But, since each class has the same talent tree there is no real need to replay the game and since each battle is required and cannot be missed there is no point in replaying the game. The hacks for this game are very good and can win the game for you quite easily by giving you unlimited skill points and unlimited stat points. Pair these hacks with the hack that will level you up after each battle and you will be unstoppable after winning your first battle, one that is practically impossible to lose at it is part of what would be considered the basic combat tutorial of the game. Plus when you make it so that it is always your turn, it is impossible to lose the game unless you manage to kill yourself. I would highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys RPGs or likes zombie games with a bit of story.
