[edit] Gameplay

The plot of PO'ed revolves around a spacecook whose ship has crash-landed on an alien world, from which it is the players task to escape. Using primitive weapons such as a frying pan and a drill, the player must advance through 26 levels filled with alien 'monsters'. A jetpack is also available to help players explore levels.

This game features characteristics similar to such classic computer games as Doom and Quake.

When PO'ed was released in 1995, the graphics were all that the 3DO processor could handle. The graphics were improved on the PlayStation re-release in 1996.

[edit] Humour

One of the main draws of PO'ed is the humour of the game's premise. Many of the enemies are designed to produce a laugh from the player purely by what they are. Some of the weapons could be considered humorous and unconventional, and the plotline is unusual in its basic content.
