The Worst 'Adventure' I've Ever Had
This game is such an incredible piece of work that I'm genuinely shocked they managed to make more than one, let alone FOUR. A comedy game that isn't funny despite the dozens of attempts; a puzzle game that has some of the worst puzzles I've ever had the misfortune of trying to solve; an adventure game that feels like a chore to try and slog through. I managed to finish the second game before giving up on this utter disgrace of a series. One of the biggest issues of this game is the writing. An adventure game can be clunky, it can be ugly, it can have dumb puzzles, so long as the writing is enjoyable. The writers clearly think they're quite clever, seen by the audacity of them to compare themselves to the likes of "Douglas Adams, Terry Pratchett and Matt Groening", so it's quite a pity that they can't fill the boots they bought. The worst example, without a doubt, is Rufus. I hate Rufus. He is without a doubt the worst protagonist I have had the displeasure of playing. The worst. He is irritating, rude, abrasive, mean, a bully, a liar, and has no redeemable qualities. You may think that it means he'll grow *into* a better person, but nope. You almost get the impression they're going to try that at the end of this game, but then you go into the next one and he's just as big of a dick as before. He doesn't change, or grow, or learn. He's just the biggest dick in the world. He deserves every bad thing that's happened to him, and worse. The awful, unfunny jokes just emphasises what an abominable person he is (and, I'd argue, reflect very poorly on the writers). The only positive I'll say is that it looks good. That's it. I think that's what they used to sucker people in, the pretty art. But for anyone who's brain isn't soup, that won't hide the true ugliness behind it. Do not play this game, or any of it's successors. Save your money.
