So my brother and I were going to have this big, multi-week adventure game marathon -- a Click-a-Palooza '24 -- and we have tried this several times before. And you know what usually happens right at the enthusiastic beginning? Yours truly inadvertently torpedoes the whole thing by picking a game that's so moldy, broken, or tiresome that we get sick of adventures for a while. And so it almost was this year! I chose Return of the Obra Dinn for our opener because we both liked The Case of the Golden Idol so much, thinking it was more of the same. And guess what: We were both bored to tears by that widely lauded, sepia-toned ship-searcher! (We especially didn't enjoy being jerked around by that impertinent magic compass or playin' Match 'Em with sixty-odd highly similar sailor faces.) Begorrah, It was about to happen again!
We had to try and save Click-a-Palooza '24 with some colorful, fun, more traditional entry -- so we dropped Obra Dinn cold went with The Idiot's Tale, which ended up being the stout shot in the arm our two-person event needed! This is probably one of the most solidly designed, transparently interfaced adventures on Steam; you don't need instructions to immediately jump right in and start gathering random items. The puzzles are chewy and might stump you for a bit -- they're designed to heat up the moon logic sectors of your brain, after all -- yet nowhere are they cruel or stupid. But funny, yes, and referential to oldish Internet culture without quite going overboard. We have the de rigueur trollish protagonist, a stick man no less; everyone else in Dodotry is dumb and the game world is a delightfully schizophrenic mess. The Idiot's Tale is about as traditional as a new adventure game gets, while still possessing a fair number puzzles that you haven't quite seen before (I've played a lot of these games).
That's why I talked about Obra Dinn so much at the beginning: The Idiot's Tale is a perfect remedy to frustration with the underwhelmingly experimental, the newfangled that falls short of fanging your novelty centers. If you find yourself longing for something old-but-better-than-old (remember those game blocks and ruined saves?) this humble-looking stick guy adventure should be your first pick!
(Still a little disappointed I couldn't kill the last evil wizard.)
