About
A point-and-click adventure game, where you don't control the adventurer...
A brave knight strolls into a small medieval village on an epic quest, but that's not you. Move between the villagers, and choose to guide or distract the adventurer from their quest, with puzzles, comedy dialogue choices, and mysteries to uncover.
Explore the beautifully hand-drawn village, and discover the lives and plans of four varied characters in this short game with multiple endings. Through your dialogue choices, be a shopkeeper out for the best deal, a monk who's taken a vow of silence, or a miner who's had a bump on the head and not quite saying what he means. And finally there is the mysterious beastie...
With British humour, characters brought to life from live voice performances, and music performed on Celtic instruments.
A very short game, but with choices that lead to different paths and characters to explore. With full voice acting, colourful characters and hand-drawn animations, get pulled into the quest and choose who's side you take!

The game was about 6 minutes long. The ending made no sense. The protagonist deposited an egg on the shop counter and then the game just mysteriously ended with no explanation, showing credits and no further story. That was it. It was extremely unsatisfying at that point as I was expecting at least a couple hours of gameplay. The scenes shown on the shop page are all the scenes in the entire game, as far as I can tell. This game seems unfinished and needs a lot more time to become an actual game. Also, the voice acting didn't always match the text, as if either the voice actors failed to read their lines or the writer changed the text after recording the voices. Also, there were visual glitches like the protagonist suddenly disappearing and reappearing at the end of the first scene. In such a short game, there's no excuse for that. I paid the initial release price of 5 dollars.
game isnt really much of a game

While the dialog is entertaining, I don't have patience to pick the wrong choices and start over. That is 'work' for me and not fun.
Very short, very simple but an entertaining tale of "heroism" from the NPC's perspective.
There's no game. It's just a demo for price of a full game. Everything you see up there is everything the game offers to you. Don't buy this.
I really enjoyed playing through this with the family, the voice acting is really well done and the backgrounds are lovely. It's short but has a few twists and some nice subversions of the adventure game genre. Looking forward to their next game.
A short, delightful, quirky journey! The Protagonish is full of fun characters and wit. A unique and engaging experience from start to finish.
What can I say its short and all achievements can be completed in under an hour I would love to see the concept expanded upon with more endings as I could only find 2 no matter what options I picked but it was still enjoyable while it lasted.
Bardzo króciutka ale za to sympatyczna gierka z ciekawym pomysłem na siebie. Nie powiem ale zagrałbym w coś podobnego jednak w większym wymiarze czasowym. Styl graficzny również mi siadł.
Unfortunately, this is a super short tech demo and should be free. It is funny, unique, and has great voice acting, but it is a tech demo nonetheless. I hope the developers create a full game one of these days.
