This game, on the other hand, contains an octopus. The plot is loosely based on the eighth novel in the Discworld universe, Guards! Guards!, telling the tale of a shadowy yet incompetent dragon worshipping cult who manage to summon an imaginary beast that, in the minds of many, is all too real.
And that is almost entirely down to Terry Pratchett himself. These include such famous names as Eric Idle (Monty Python), Rob Brydon (The Trip), Jon Pertwee (Dr Who), Kate Robbins (Spitting Image) and Tony Robinson (Black Adder).ĭespite all of these flaws - and to some they are potentially game-ruining - I cannot help but love this game. The voice acting is also of the highest quality, with some well known British comedians bringing the dialogue hilariously to life. The pixel art brings the fantasy world to life in detailed VGA graphics. What can't be argued is how beautiful the graphics are. This is only becomes a problem if you don't love Pratchett (and who doesn't?). Playing through the game is a joy even if you do peek at a guide every now and then. Under the guidance of Terry Pratchett himself, these long conversations and cutscenes bear his trademark wit, making the mundane out of the magical. Sure you've seen all 46 episodes many times, but they're still fun each and every time every time you binge watch. It's as if you're taking part in a Monty Python marathon. I'm talking delayed-flight-at-Heathrow-airport long, though this is far more fun than that. Did this make it any less enjoyable for me? Not all all, which brings me to my next point.
In fact, as a child I had to resort to a walkthrough many times in order to complete it. It's this loony logic that gives the game a reputation from being one of the most difficult adventure games out there.
You can then take the fishmonger's belt while his pants are down. You then hide these prunes in the fishmonger's caviar so that he'll get the squits and head for the toilet, only to be attacked by the cephalopod. You then have to go back in time, steal a drumstick from a pub sign, go back to the present, ring the lunch gong so that you can take a fellow wizard's prunes. All you have to do is seduce a prostitute to get custard to dump it down a toilet along with an octopus (taken from a fishmonger with a little help from some rope and that crazy little worm).
