About

The Ditty of Carmeana is a single player action adventure game with a comedy theme. It was developed by Tampered Evidence LLC and was released on April 16, 2022. It received overwhelmingly positive reviews from players.

"The Ditty of Carmeana" is a single-player comedy action game that offers a zany spoof in the style of Monty Python and Mel Brooks.

The game is not focused on violence or graphics, but rather on witty, razor-sharp satire and lighthearted fun.

    • “What starts as what feels like a 10-minute long parody game branches out into a sprawling quest filled with hilarious jokes and genre-twisting comedy.”
    • “To progress through the main plot, you have to solve 'escape room-like' puzzles, complete stealthy missions, and overcome clever boss battles, all of which are challenging and leave you with a sense of satisfaction.”
    • “It's funny and impressive in its extraordinarily jank way, but it is a shaggy dog story on a level never seen before and nearly impossible to not feel buyer's remorse over.”
    • “Ie: just because it's a bundle of gags doesn't mean the story shouldn't care.”
    • “The game itself is a parody/meta/Zelda-like/purposely jank RPG adventure game that challenges the normalcy of game and quest design within the genre.”

Players report a fun experience with its open world, combat, and various gameplay elements, indicating that performance issues are rare and do not significantly detract from the overall enjoyment.

    • “It's perfectly playable (or at least for what it attempts to do anyways) with an explorable open world sprinkled with secrets throughout, simplistic yet functioning combat, mostly light puzzle solving, boss fights and dungeons, a small selection of minigames, an actual working credit system (yes, there are credit cards), and different items to equip along your journey. Aside from the occasional bug, the game runs smoothly on even the most potato PCs and doesn't crash, or at least not often.”
    • “I had a fun time playing through and I personally didn’t run into any issues with the game’s performance.”
  • graphics
