The first episode of Farnham Fables is not a great start to a series. It's tonally inconsistent, has no real gameplay to speak of, doesn't really look all that good, has an annoying soundtrack, and did a great job making me feel super uncomfortable.
"Farnham Fables" is a point-and-click adventure game with old school 216-color graphics and a windowed 800x600 resolution. The game features a single EXE file under 10 MB, with simple yet honest design and lots of reading.

Farnham Fables Review - But Why?
The first episode of Farnham Fables is not a great start to a series. It's tonally inconsistent, has no real gameplay to speak of, doesn't really look all that good, has an annoying soundtrack, and did a great job making me feel super uncomfortable.
20%Farnham Fables Episode 2 Review - How to Get On a List
Farnham Fables' second episode has boring gameplay and a story that lacks anything related to an interesting conflict. It also has a strange soundtrack that cuts in and out to make random noises. Above all else, it has scenes that made me feel so uncomfortable that I genuinely believe it's time we have a chat with God about starting over as a species. We clearly don't deserve our sentience.
