The Mystery Of Woolley Mountain

The biggest pro of the game is that if You encounter a bug the developer will respond to Your bug reprot and fix it pretty quickly. Of course it would be ideal to not have to report bugs at all.

I wish I could give the game a neutral review, with a very slight tendency toward positive. This seems to be a game designed to play together with your little ones. If you don't have children, I guess it is perfectly serviceable as a quick, basic adventure for those who find themselves absolutely starved for a P&C game. If you're curious about it yourself, I recommend getting this on sale. Let's get my major gripes with the game out of the way first: -While I personally think the visual style is unappealing (like an old flash game), it does have enough detail and charm to not be [i]completely[/i] hideous. You'll come across plenty of problems with the layering of characters and environmental objects, which will break what little immersion there is to begin with. -The characters are not deep or all that interesting (with one particularly weird exception), but distinguishable enough to remember. Most of them not by name though, I just finished the game and can't recall any of the names of the main cast. I simply had no reason to care. -The puzzles are of standard P&C flavor, use items on things in your environment, occasionally combine them in your inventory and progress through so…

The Mystery of Woolley Mountain, developed and published by Lightfoot Brothers, is a lovingly eccentric point-and-click adventure that revels in its own oddness. From its opening scenes, the game makes it clear that you’re in for a quirky journey: a band of eccentric, time-traveling audio scientists is preparing to rescue kidnapped children trapped on the enigmatic Woolley Mountain. This premise alone sets the stage for a story that combines classic adventure-game structure with an unmistakably British flavor of humor, filled with surreal characters, unexpected dialogue, and a gleeful disregard for convention. Rather than trying to imitate the genre’s more polished modern entries, Woolley Mountain embraces the scrappy creativity and delightfully strange spirit of early point-and-click classics, offering something that feels both nostalgic and entirely its own. The game’s world is one of its biggest strengths. Each screen bursts with bold colors and hand-drawn art that strikes a balance between charming simplicity and expressive character design. The environments—from whimsical laboratories to fantastical landscapes—feel like storybook illustrations brought to life, inviting player…

A cool trip in a (not yellow) submarine with a team of time travelers scientists embarked on a quest to save some children from a witch in a mountain. The pretty visuals and the great soundtrack give a good mood to this adventure that I found quite relaxing to play after work. I also loved the voice acting (with the british accent) that really helps bring the characters to life. Puzzles are well balanced, it took me about 7 hours to finish the game without the need for a guide (well... except maybe once, but no more I swear!). And a last word for the dev who is still active on the forum and helped me out with a problem I had with a DLC, thanks again!

First of all I like the humor of this game. Together with the fun story, the silly characters, the cute art style and the good sound design, it makes for a really good point & click adventure. Sometimes you have to think out of the box, but all and all the puzzle design is done well. I highly recommend this game for fans of point & click adventures and friends of English humor.

A decent Point-and-Click Game with good British humour Needed some minor refinement here and there though
