The Will of Arthur Flabbington

Un'avventura grafica molto carina con interfaccia punta e clicca che mi ha strappato un sorriso in più di un'occasione e che strizza l'occhio alle avventure Lucas degli anni 80 e 90. Alcuni enigmi sono leggermente forzati e poco chiari e la durata totale è piuttosto breve ma è assolutamente consigliata ai nostalgici, a chi ama le avventure grafiche (soprattutto se old-style) e a chi vuole passare qualche ora di spassosa leggerezza.

This is such a gem of an adventure game!!! I played it almost entirely on my steam deck while on holiday, and it ran flawlessly. The pixel graphics work great on the small screen. The puzzles are where this game really shines - a lot of modern adventure games these days tend to be more on the easy side. But this game has really challenging multi-layered puzzles. But they're all entirely logical and well designed, so there's no moon-logic required here. I confess I did look up a hint at one point, but as soon as I realised what I needed to do it all made sense. I solved the rest myself. The ghost possession elements were great and something I've not seen before in an adventure game - definitely made some of the puzzles lots of fun. The game is fully voiced and the main character sounds kind of like Richard Ayoade which, lets be honest, can only add to the game's appeal... Game is a decent length - think it took around 7.5 hours to complete for me, so not overly long but not too short either. Loved the way it ended which I won't say anything more about to avoid spoilers. Its insane that such an amazing game was created by just one person (except for the voice actors of course!). Will definitely keep an eye out for future games they make. Just play this game if you haven't already.

Solid point and click adventure. The puzzles are fair, although you need to click on everything twice, once for a description and once to try to pick it up, so it can be easy to miss an item or two. Overall, the puzzles and game play feel creative and somewhat new. The writing and voice acting are good, but I actually didn't really find it funny at all. I think it lacks a bit of charm with the characters and none of them came off as likable or very memorable to me.

A number of reviews here complain about moon logic. In my experience, that can mean anything from "I'm not good at adventure games" to "this game uses moon logic." To assist you in drawing your own conclusion on the matter, I will provide an example drawn from the first five minutes of gameplay. There is an incense burner that must be lit. 20 metres away, there is a burning candle. Those of you with experience using basic reasoning to complete simple tasks in your everyday life may believe the solution to this conundrum is obvious. But oh, you overestimate yourselves. For you see, while you may throw caution to the wind and brave the mortal danger of a naked flame, the main character complains that he cannot pick up the candle because it is too close to his crotch. To take a safety-first approach, the actual solution to this puzzle is to singe the corner of a magazine and use a hand fan on it every two seconds to keep the flame alive while you carry it to the burner. I attempted to educate the arson assessor from my home and contents insurance company on this commonsense methodology, but after a long, quizzical stare, he only responded "Are you daft?" I will be staying with family indefinitely as I complete the rest of the game to learn how my home's reconstruction might be funded supernaturally.

Love it

divertente e ben confezionato, enigmi ben inseriti nella trama e sfidanti. Peronaggi memorabili...ci aspettiamo grandi cose da Guga per il futuro Davvero notevole!

Cute point and click game with a funny story and plenty of references to the genre. Puzzles can be tough, yet solvable with some patience and trial-and-errors. I recommend for the fans of the genre.

I am a veteran of the 90s era point n clicks. And it is so rare to find a game which really replicates how I felt in that era. This is one of them - has all the charm of those 90s point n clicks. The main character is hilarious as is his side kick. The puzzles are magnificent - pitched just right in difficulty and a nice variation added as you switch between characters. The story is simple and very nice with just the right message.
