Skeletonized body of Mandy the Mandalor was found in a forest near London only a few days after this discount. Just remember three things: women like winners, always drug a homeless man and lowry pose Thank you gamer

mastahpiece, created by germans in 2001.

the only way to describe this game is in song: Halligan's life was pretty drab Racking up debt with a pizza tab Then his life got flipped around When they found the bones on the hollow ground It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude Lowery was blessed with dashing looks Got all the girls with all his books He couldn't care less about the quest for killers Still Halligan still came and swiped the scissors It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude The Droods are coming The Droods are scary The Scotland Yard is getting wary But Halligan coming to solve the quarrel No matter how ILLEGAL, CORRUPT, or IMMORAL It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude It's the Mystery of the Droods, they all have an attitude It's the Mystery of the Droooooods, a mystery for me and you It's the Mystery of the Droooooods, a mystery for me and you

A fantastic Adventure Game

SHORT VERSION AT THE BOTTOM. I honestly can't tell you much about the game. Don't ruin yourself with spoilers. Halligan alone makes this game worth buying. Remember that one dev who complained that people didn't buy his game because "they hate playing as someone who isn't good"? Well they're wrong. Halligan goes from 0 to 100 real fast, and he's easily one of the most chaotic stupid characters out there. There's a point in the game where all bets are off as to what he's capable of. The game as a whole is bit of a jab at the point-and-click adventure genre. Halligan's behavior from an outside perspective makes him seem like a madman. He constantly picks up random garbage and goes off on insane, illogical tangents that somehow lead him to the answer. And yet the man can't make a phone call, or buy some salt for his work. Aside from that, the characters are all well-established, and have great voice acting. The graphics are obviously dated, but that comes with the age that it has and being in 3D. TL;DR ; If you want something completely off the wall, get this. It's hilarious, dramatic, and entertaining overall.

Masterpiece

I LOVE Mystery of the Druids. This game intentionally is crafted to be bad, and is cited to be inspired on B-movies. It looks horrible for its time, but this is totally a gem!! It's so cheesy- so bad it's good. It was definitely planned- planned to be as bad as possible. Puzzle design is actually pretty well done compared to other adventure games- some things can be a stretch but this could easily be completable without a guide. Also, I will always love Halligan. He's INSANE.
