Quick Look: The Book Of Unwritten Tales

i was actually surprisingly impressed by this game.

I know they hate when people say this, but maybe and ER candidate? I think a point and click adveture game would work well as an ER. Especially since its easy to get stuck playing them alone! I mean Vinny and Jeff made it through all of P4's poorly explained search quests!

OMFG this quick look drove me crazy. Pick up the slime pot and put it on the stove!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys even had this idea earlier. When you came back to the kitchen there was a hand icon on the pot with slime. GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

edit. looked it up and im wrong. but still gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I- I just- FOUR! There are four levers and you only pulled two!

I can't believe Vinny found a way to reference Daikatana in this QL.

This game reminds me a lot of Dun Morogh.

Thanks for the quick look, convinced me to buy it! Thanks @Vinny :D

Wish in general some larger segment of the game industry had continued down this pre-rendered path. From adventure games to Final Fantasy 7-9. Would be curious to see a huge budget game like those.

The voice acting in this game is hella Welsh, I expected one of the voice actors to just say: "I'm from Wales"

@AssInAss: haha indeed, me too, scooped up the special edition on steam at the new release price :), great looking game :)

Guys, adventure games are fucking dumb. This QL is awesome, but adventure games are just dense and painful.

@The_Nubster: Oh man you're right. All those years I spent enjoying adventure games, all of those amazing adventure games at the top of my "favorite games of all time" list, all for nothing. Damn, I was a fool. Thank god I have someone like you who can show me what to think for myself. I'd almost be a free person without it. It's good to be a sheep.

You don't need me to validate your taste in video games, man. I'm just some guy on the internet.

@dropabombonit: Loving the voice acting on that basis alone.

This looks ultra-charming. I'm definitely buying it this weekend, even though I have played very few adventure games in my life.

This game looks great. Very funny and charming.

@The_Nubster: You're dense and painful :P

Goodie, nothing like a relaxed gaming session playing a solid adventure game.

Next up, I need a Steam release for Gray Matter as well.

Switch to Sid and put the hamster in the microwave. ^_^

I might have to get this just to work out how to get rid of that damn slime!

This game looks great. Stylistically, it reminds me a bit of King's Quest VII for some reason.

Just picked this up after watching the QL. Been forever since I've gotten an adventure game. I was thinking about picking up the Walking Dead during the Steam sale but didn't for whatever reason and earlier today I found out PSN+ members will get it for free in a week!

Looks like it's Adventure Game August for me :P

This is an adventure ass adventure game but it doesn't look bad at all.

This game is really awesome. Got it after the QL, which was hilarious, and can't put it down, it's so good!

So frustrating to watch!  They pulled the two levers that don't work and then skipped over the two that do something.

@JohnLivingston said:

@Milkman: There were two additional levers in the first room of the Gnome Hole that they did not pull. They tried to activate the first two which were both locked. The other two open the door to the Kitchen and to your own bedroom. From there you can get what you need to kill the slime, get the map and finish building your parachute.

Also, I demand part 2!!

Man that's not fair, because the spacebar icons were totally not over those levers. I got stuck exactly where they got stuck because the spacebar misled me. Now I'm midway into chapter 3 of 5 and haven't been stuck since.

Missed this one, digging the style. As a very 'Terry Pratchett' feel to it.

I finished this recently and I can honestly say, this was one of the most pleasent adventure games I ever played. I only got stuck once where the game didn't show an icon I could interact with properly, other than that the puzzles always felt logical and I always knew that I was supposed to do. The humor is also tememdous with a ton of references and inside jokes, such as Death complaining that no one dies in this game or a bunch of nerds playing an MMO.

Installing this right now, have high hopes after everything Vinny said
