About The Knobbly Crook
Enter the surreal, disturbing, and ridiculous world of the Knobbly Crook in this old-school point-and-click adventure. O'Sirus the Snip is a simple paper farmer driven to epic adventure by a spooky face with a spookier voice. He will ultimately seek to become a Knobbcrookian royal guard–a Guffaloon. Stories of their heroic battles against the fearsome Bogold empire echo throughout the Crook. Unfortunately, they’re not currently recruiting simple paper farmers. He’s going to have to use every dirty trick in his book to cheat his way to the top and that means YOU will need to understand the key elements of the Knobbly Crook - Rock, Paper, and Scissors. Creatures of stone crush the metallic Knobbcrookians. The Knobbcrookians herd and farm paper animals. Fearsome stone giants fear tiny paper animals.
As we join our woefully inept hero, O'Sirus, he finds himself on trial for all the crimes you have not yet committed together. Retell his nonsensical story as his journey begins, finding himself a stowaway on a ship that is half horse, half boat, and half whale. Every moment that passes takes you further from your goal--the Knobbly Crook. It's up to you to torment the Drafthorse's unsuspecting crew in an attempt to alter their course. Once you reach moist land, the real adventure begins... and continues for rather a long while... and concludes after quite a bit of shameful nonsense.
The Knobbly Crook is a full adventure game and is completely free without any ads or tricks.

The puzzles in this are too obscure, and sometimes fail - I'm using a walkthrough and I still can't get past the first 1/3 of the game. It could be fun, but e.g. how am I supposed to think of tickling all of the hanging skeletons until one of them drops something hidden??
Игра "The Knobbly Crook" подкупила меня своим необычным стилем и атмосферой. Пиксельная графика создает какое-то трогательное, почти ностальгическое ощущение, а мрачный юмор и абсурдные ситуации заставляют улыбаться даже в самые напряженные моменты. Геймплей прост, но увлекателен. Механика с использованием "Громилы" интересна и разнообразна, заставляя находить нетривиальные решения в каждом задании. Головоломки в меру сложные, требуют внимательности к деталям и немного креативности. Сюжет, хоть и не лишен клише, подан с изюминкой. Главный герой - весьма харизматичный персонаж, и наблюдать за его приключениями в этом странном и опасном мире действительно интересно. Из минусов можно отметить некоторую однообразность локаций, но это с лихвой компенсируется уникальным визуальным стилем и продуманным дизайном уровней. В целом, "The Knobbly Crook" - это отличная инди-игра, способная подарить несколько часов увлекательного геймплея и приятных впечатлений. Рекомендую всем любителям приключенческих игр с юмором и пиксельной графикой.
The Knobbly Crook is an absolute gem! From its wonderfully weird art style to the witty dialogue and clever puzzles, every moment feels like stepping into a surreal fairy tale. It’s hilarious, charming, and beautifully unique. It was an unforgettable experience that deserves way more recognition :D!!!

This game was fun and just the right amount of challenging. However, the level with the paper spider is unnecessarily hard. The controls for it are bad, making it much harder than it should be. Overall, the game is decent, though, and you should give it a go.
the best way i can describe this is "jam band fantasy" this is the best free to play game ive played on steam so far, really solid point and click adventure. the puzzles aren't too convoluted like a good few of these type of games. i would pick it up if i where you. its free to play after all
