Spunkgargleweewee (SGWW) is a
sub-genre of first-person-shooter games. These games are very linear and focused on telling a story or showing spectacular (cut-) scenes, rather than gameplay or challenging the player. Hence, they often have regenerating health and plenty of guides towards the next scene. Oftentimes, these games are extremely easy. The player does not have to perform well to
win, because the
NPC-allies
win combats on their own, while the player can hardly die at all. Mistakes of the "player" are not supposed to disturb the
flow of the story.
Since Spunkgargleweewees are more focused on linear storytelling than on gameplay, they could also be defined as interactive (action) movies.
The term was coined by
Ben "Yahtzee" Croshaw in his zero-punctuation review of "Medal of
Honor Warfighter".
