“It's like playing a point-and-click video game of a Terry Gilliam animation from 'Monty Python's Flying Circus,' which is hilariously amazing. The animated renaissance paintings combined with Monty Python-style comedy create an absolutely hilarious mix, full of irreverent and absurd humor reminiscent of classic British comedy.”
“The humor is excellent: dry, clever, and perfectly matched with the absurdity of the art style. The game’s premise is unique and hilarious, perfectly using its absurd and surrealist tone to deliver a comedic adventure filled with smart puzzles, witty dialogue, and a blend of high art and lowbrow comedy that creates a distinct and memorable atmosphere.”
