A very fun point & click adventure game with a charming art style. As is probably hinted at by the choice of an all-animal cast, this one doesn't take itself overly seriously, as your investigation is likely to end up featuring more casual destruction and tragic accidents than the actual murder you're investigating. The self-awareness the game shows during all of that is a novelty in and of itself. Give it a try!
Absolutely superb! Fantastic point and click with a great case to solve amongst fun characters! Every pun was a delight, some even groan-worthy. I enjoyed the animal-ification of human phrases, the attention to detail is so clever. The controls and navigation of the game were really easy and quick to pick up, as well as the inventory bar. I enjoyed the mystery, I wasn't able to guess! Nor expect the twist at the end. Such a lovely story that was uncomplicated but delightfully funny all the way. I also really enjoyed the art style and the little details. The Voice acting is superb too, made me recall one or two people I used to know. One thing to note is some jokes may not hit for non-British players or those unaware of certain little British things.
I have one major gripe about this game. Once it is saved (and it saves automatically), you cannot re-enter a chapter. I have twice reached the lighthouse, both times without the gunpowder needed to continue. And because of this one simple, stupid thing! I have to start all over. It is the most frustrating problem I have encountered. It's a simple puzzle game, and it shouldn't be this unforgiving with its players.
Przygodówka wskaż-i-kliknij. Lord Winklebottom (żyraf, detektyw, dżentelmen) wraz ze swoim nieodłącznym towarzyszem Frumplem (hipopotam, lekarz, nie pałętaj mu się pod nogami) udaje się na wyspę i prośbę swojego przyjaciela, który planuje na przyjęciu ogłosić coś ważnego. No jak się można domyśleć - przyjaciel ginie, a każdy gość w rezydencji jest podejrzany. Co jest HOT: + dobra, intuicyjna konstrukcja zagadek z nieco wyższym poziomem trudności wymagającym od gracza przeszukiwania małych szufladek czy zabierania już użytych przedmiotów; + główny duet ma dobą chemię; + ciekawy zwrot akcji; + pomysłowe detale świata przedstawionego biorącego pod uwagę, że bohaterowie to zwierzęta; + dobry humor, zwłaszcza suchoironiczne dogryzanki Frumple'a; + podobają mi się dizajny postaci... A co NOT: - ...ale samo malowanie już mniej. Gra ma swoje momenty (jak płynięcie w deszczu na wyspę), ale też potrafi wyglądać tanio a pustawo (jak plansza pokazująca rezydencję); - poboczni bohaterowie nie są interesujący, mało czasu spędzamy z samymi podejrzanymi, co jest szczególnie rozczarowujące przez obietnicę zagadki jak z Christie. "Lord Winklebottom Investigates" to solidna przygodówka, może przez konstrukcję zagadek bardziej skierowana do fanów gatunku. Może w kwestii oprawy budżet jej się nie spina (choć szczęśliwie znalazł się pieniądz na dobry dubbing!), ale zdecydowanie nadrabia interesującą, humorystyczną historią z dobrymi zagadkami.
Exciting, charming, bizarrely funny, and exceptionally unconventional detective story with great animal characters. I hope there will be a sequel.
+ schönes Point&Click-Spiel im Gewand eines klassischen "whodunit"-Detektivkrimis + knifflige, aber nicht zu schwere oder zu leichte Rätsel in Form von "Gegenstände kombinieren, zuordnen und benutzen" + humorvolle und amüsante Dialoge + einzigartige Tier-Charaktere mit Witz und eigenen Geheimnissen + tolles, stimmiges Voice Acting (auf Englisch gespielt) + nette Musik im Hintergrund + man kann jederzeit speichern und später an der gleichen Stelle wieder einsteigen - man muss das Spiel 2x spielen, um alle Achievements zu erhalten - an einigen Stellen im Spiel muss man relativ oft hin und her laufen, um alle geforderten Gegenstände zusammen zu sammeln, um eine entsprechende Handlung durchzuführen
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!! This was excellent. A bit short maybe but well worth the price of admission. Hope there's a sequel at some point!
More like this, please, because it is delightful in every way. Love the humor, voice acting, script, gameplay, backgrounds and the rest.
It's a fun game, i enjoyed the story and the voice actors did a great job too
Nice and chill point and click story. I had to check twice [spoiler]during time-limited events like bell at the pub and spriritism seance[/spoiler] online help because in-game clue were not relevant enough.
