Murder most reticulated when Lord Winklebottom Investigates releases later this month
Developer Cave Monsters have announced that Lord Winklebottom Investigates, the studios first game will release later this month, specifically on July 28 for Switch, PC and Xbox platforms.
In Lord Winklebottom Investigates, head back in time to the 1920s and assume the role of dapper giraffe detective Lord Winklebottom in a daring quest to solve the murder of an old friend.
Inspired by British literature icons such as Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes, Lord Winklebottom and his tea-drinking hippo companion Dr. Frumple will enjoy a journey full of intrigue and secrets that will keep mystery fans gripped. This is a game with plenty of heart, featuring a script and setting full of bizarre characters and humour that wouldn’t be out of place in a Monty Python or Blackadder sketch.
Players who are behooved to crack the case will do so by solving puzzles and interrogating a variety of animal NPCs. Including grog-loving seagulls, a bleating goat as a maid, and a puffin in a fetching yellow sou'wester, each 2D character has unique, hand-painted artwork. Point and click your way through the game and seek justice for your fallen friend.
