comment |
Lester the Unlikely is a 1994 Cinematic Platform Game for the SNES. In the beginning, a typical teenage boy named Lester, who is "kind of geeky" and "kind of sleepy", recently got a new issue of the Super Duper Hero Squad comic book. He was reading it while walking on a pier, until he fell asleep next to a cargo crate lying beside a cargo ship. After he and the cargo were loaded onto the ship by a crane and cruised off, the ship got hijacked by pirates who scuttled it. Lester luckily found a life jacket and swam toward the nearest island while the cargo ship sank. Lester must find his way home by exploring the island for someone or something that can help him survive. |

Title Drop: Lester tries to impress Tikka by referring himself as "Lester the Brave". Tikka then renames him as "Lester the Unlikely" as it seemed more accurate at the time. |

Character Development |
| | Lester the Unlikely (Video Game) / int_3b113b7 |
comment |
Character Development: When Lester arrives at the beginning beach area, he's basically a wuss. Lester can't even jump down a cliff or spiky rocks without shaking in fear, something most game protagonists can do without hesitation. Although he runs from an enemy, screaming like a complete wimp the first time he encounters it, it doesn't happen in subsequent encounters. On his adventure through the island, however, he becomes more confident as he travels (after a kiss from Tikka, that is, he is no longer flailing his arms while running, standing upright, etc). |

Face Your Fears: A major theme of the game. When Lester encounters an enemy for the first time, he runs away from it (removing control from the player temporarily). He will then approach it cautiously. Once that particular type of enemy is defeated, Lester will not show any fear toward it. |

Took a Level in Badass: Lester, as mentioned previously. At the start of the game, he's a coward who gets scared of things like crabs and turtles. By the end, he's much more confident in himself, loses his cowardice, and capable enough in combat to be shanking pirates with a Sword. |

Artificial Insolence: This is likely invoked to show just how much of a coward Lester is. Early on in the game, the first time Lester is asked to go over a ledge, he shakes his head and says "No!". The second time, he looks to the player and shakes his knees. He finally complies on the third attempt. Also, whenever he encounters a new enemy, he screams and runs away from it. When the player guides him back over to it, he puts his fists up and slowly approaches it. |
