Rowen's Grand Adventure

Entertaining point-and-click adventure that might benefit from fewer hotspots per scene, though hints ensure you don’t spend too much time searching for solutions. The game places you in the role of Rowen, a dedicated psychiatrist who goes to great lengths to help his patients, no matter the methods required. Naturally, not all of his interventions go smoothly, and many patients end up fleeing in panic immediately after sessions, screaming down the corridors. Still, the important part is that their problems are resolved, even if the process is far from conventional. Things take an unexpected turn when one particularly unfortunate patient leaps out of a window. In response, Rowen’s receptionist advises him to take some time off and go on vacation, presumably for his own sanity. Soon after, a neighbor casually mentions that America might be an interesting place to visit. Intrigued by the idea, Rowen decides to grab his twin brother, boards a flight to the United States, and gets involved into some silly events. From a gameplay perspective, the mechanics are firmly rooted in the classic point-and-click adventure tradition, which has remained largely unchanged over the years. You m…

This game is a hidden gem. (Meaning poorly marketed) Voice acting is great! The main character sounds like SovietWomble. They are probably neighbours. Britain is a small country, after all. I was surprised it is fully voice-acted. Ok, it is 2 guys and a microphone, but they are really talented, except for the female voices. Those sound like everybody is trans. The humor is great. It is sometimes meta, sometimes just British, but it clicked with me, and I enjoyed almost every minute of the game. Except for the car ride. That one is terrible, long, unskippable, and I can't save during it, so I have to play it through in one sitting and almost missed my bus. All in all. I hope more people find this game. It is peak old-school PnC! [quote]Follow us for more [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45113328-Awesome-Adventure-Friends/] Awesome Adventures![/url] [/quote]

Amazing game. This is really a love letter to Lucas Arts. Loved everything about it. The puzzles, the characters, the references, the length. The puzzles in particular were the reason I couldn't put the game down! Just the right amount of difficulty, and more like the old time classics, instead of the ridiculously easy puzzles of other "modern" adventures. I particularly enjoyed the game structure where you can solve the puzzles at your own pace like a semi open game world, instead of the plot being confined in a closed room. It even follows the Ron Gilbert' s rule of three! Amazing effort from this Dev, the game is a one - man show and as a huge fan of the genre, Im really hoping for a sequel !

I really liked this game. Puzzles were a lot of fun to figure out. Good length, too. Loved the references to adventure game clichés. The only (minor) issues I had with it were that some jokes and character voices were a bit more annoying than funny. That aside, I definitely recomend it.
