Graphic adventure, funny, point and click, 2D, comedy. PLOT We are in Fochougny, a quiet French village located in the middle of the green countryside. IN this corner of paradise lives Harpagon Lonion, a boy son of a billionaire, his altruistic spirit leads him to dream of being a great super hero with the powers to try his hand at saving people in danger. For this reason he invented a hero of his own, when danger looms he disguises himself in "Superfuo"; but if you live in such a quiet place what could happen strange? Or what danger can come? Having no other choice, the only strange thing that happens is a mysterious little apple thief in the orchards, but Lonion takes the case seriously and zealously helped by his best friend Sophie, he sets out to search, gather clues, investigate and question residents . Will "Superfluous" be able to unmask and stop the culprit? PLAYABILITY First of all I want to congratulate you, because this adventure is the result of a single author.

A really funny point and click adventure game with good puzzles. A little bit of hidden gem i think. The hand drawn art makes me think of the original Edna and Harvey game, but more colorful.

An absolute gem of a game! Superfluous Returnz is packed with humor, crazy action, and a unique style that makes it stand out. The story is ridiculous in the best way possible, and the gameplay is fun and unpredictable. It’s the kind of game that keeps surprising you at every turn. Highly recommended for anyone who loves absurd humor and over-the-top adventures!

A beautiful hand crafted point and click. I really liked to see my French countryside surroundings represented truthfully in a video games, it's quite a welcome change! Humor is omnipresent and every little detail has been thought of, and the musics are quite catchy. The puzzles are quite fun to resolve, and for the ones that were too hard for my the "clues help line" was very welcome and very well balanced in progressively helping me.

It's a great game. It reminds me the good old Lucas art games. I played with my kid and he doesn't stop talking about Superflu. I hope a new version is coming. Congrats Gee.
