Fester Mudd: Curse of the Gold - Episode 1

Well, how to review this game on a fair basis? It is a very nice love letter to the good ol' point and click adventures. And I am not talking about the crappy search and click (wannabe) adventures, where you have to find items on the screen that are mentioned at the bottom, no...I mean the really good adventures. Sadly this game was abandoned by the publisher. If you still are interested in an overpriced third of a really nice game, that is mostly scripted that bad, that you get dialogs from the beginning at the end of the episode and without them activated at the right point of the game, you don't get the achievements, then be a charm and spend your money on this fine and unfinished product. Well, I liked it, but thanks to that I am more disappointed about the fact, that this game will NEVER be finished! (The devs should start kickstarter and expand the game to 5-7 episodes, so it is worth for the fans to spend more money on the game!)

[h1] A tribute to classic point and click adventure games! [/h1] Fester Mudd was a surprise, a great surprise. It really respects its antecessors and the genre, works as a nice throwback to those adventure games back in the day and oh boy, it delivered. The story is interesting enough to keep you playing it, in fact, as the game goes on you are more and more invested in the plot thanks to its pretty good puzzles, all of them make sense, some served as a comedy value, some can be challenging. Talking about comedy, it is filled with tons of funny dialogues and scenarios, which ones delivered even more entertaining to the game, there are some easter eggs and those are great. The game is quite short, but as you can see it took me above 8 hours, so there is that. Also there are achievements to unlock, which is good. As for flaws goes, I don't have any, really, It might get a little repetitive after a while and I wish there was more variety in the soundtrack, don't get me wrong, is not a bad soundtrack at all, but it might get repetitive as well. In the end I really liked Fester Mudd, it was a great adventure! 8.6/10
