Overview Lord Winklebottom Investigates:

Lord Winklebottom Investigates is a 1920s murder mystery, point and click adventure featuring a dashing giraffe detective! Inspired by Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes, the game is a classic British murder mystery! It’s the 1920s and the world’s foremost detective is about to embark on his most challenging case yet. A mysterious invitation to an isolated island results in a grisly murder and a race against time to track down the killer. Thankfully, in this world that’s not quite like our own, there’s nobody better to crack the case than the great detective and gentleman giraffe, Lord Winklebottom. Join Lord Winklebottom and his steadfast companion Dr Frumple as they investigate the murder of their old friend. Uncover clues, interview suspects and solve puzzles to crack the case, capture the killer and uncover the horrifying dark secret at the heart of the Isle of Barghest! I say, a good old-fashioned Point & Click adventure. It’s a very British 1920’s murder mystery indeed, but with animals! Marvelous art, music that most perfectly enhances the atmosphere, did I mention hilariously British animals? Splendid humour that made me rather literally laugh out loud quite a lot.

Lord Winklebottom Investigates Pre-Installed:

The puzzles are mostly classic stuff. A fair bit of backtracking, but it wasn’t terribly bothersome. I did get stuck a few times for rather a bit longer than I would have found enjoyable, close to just bloody well giving up and waiting for a walkthrough. The hint system is consistently useless, isn’t it? I rather did know what the goal was, just not how the bloody game wanted me to get there. On the other hand, a lot of the puzzles were most satisfying and made me feel frightfully clever indeed. I suppose the bleeding gender stereotypes were to be expected in what is, after all, a 1920’s setting. Even so, certain details (which would be spoilers) were awfully unnecessary. I must say, though, the characters and story were entirely entertaining indeed. A tad dark towards the end especially, but nothing too dreadful.
