About This Game It be the golden age of pirates! Dogs of the sea! Quite literally.Our swashbuckling sausage-dog star is Gaius James Rover, son of the famous clown Jolly Rover, who died from a blow to the groin from an improperly loaded joke cannon.Following the tragically comedic death of his father, young Gaius, who insists on using his middle name James, goes to live with his uncle, a wealthy plantation owner on a small Caribbean island. While practising a particularly tricky juggling move, he accidentally taints a barrel of rum with tobacco, creating a potent and addictive brew which he coins ‘Jolly Rover’, one of the most prized substances in the Caribbean.Alas, the wealth of Jolly Rover sales only manages to fill the pockets of his uncle, and Gaius longs for action and adventure and, more importantly, the opportunity to start his own circus and follow in the footsteps of his father.It is not long before the fumbled juggling ball of opportunity raps Gaius smartly on the head yet again. While his uncle is away, a large contract for Jolly Rover arrives from Guy DeSilver, Governor of the notorious Groggy Island, with payment upfront!In a blinding flurry of optimism, Gaius pools his meagre savings with this advance and charters a ship and crew to take him to Groggy Island. Along the way he meets a colourful band of seafaring cutthroats, scallywags and rogues otherwise known as pirates.It is here we begin to follow the short and stubby tail of Gaius across three wild and untamed tropical islands, as he attempts to fulfil his dream of starting a circus, hampered only by pirates, villains, voodoo, love and considerable lack of loot.Jolly Rover is a traditional 2D point and click adventure, including casual elements, such as an integrated hint system, and task bar. Bonus elements include unlockable Captain Bio's, music, concept art and developer commentary!Key features:Over 60 beautifully rendered scenes to explore25 colourful, fully animated and voiced charactersTraditional point and click adventure with simple one-click interfaceOrganic and fully integrated hint and task tracking systemUnlockable extras include Captain Bio's, concept art, music tracks and directors commentary 7aa9394dea Title: Jolly RoverGenre: Adventure, Casual, IndieDeveloper:BrawsomePublisher:BrawsomeRelease Date: 7 Jun, 2010 Jolly Rover FULL jolly auto land rover. jolly roger pub. jolly rovers cricket club perinthalmanna. jolly rover wiki. jolly rover sunset cruise. jolly rover key west fl. jolly rovers trail crew. the jolly rover song. jolly rover key west coupon. jolly rover lösung. jolly ii rover promo code. jolly rover 2. jolly rover sailboat key west. jolly rover key west. jolly rover pc. jolly rovers cricket club. jolly automobili land rover. jolly rover poradnik. jolly sea rover. jolly rover key west florida. jolly rover game download. jolly rover schooner key west. jolly rover 2 key west. jolly rover game. jolly rover ii key west. jolly rover georgetown sc. jolly rover. jolly rover download. jolly roving tar Simple, cute, amusing point and click. Fun story and characters. I loved playing it.Scale: 1=despised 2=negative 3=could go either way 4=positive 5=lovedGame design: 4/5 The game is really tight and everything works well. However, there are some extra things needed for 100% that you really have to guess at to accomplish. You need to click everything in every scene twice before you move on to a new area of story because you can't go back, and that doesn't guarantee that you'll find everything because there's no reason for a lot of it. It adds a little replayability because it's a short game, but that's a cheap tactic.Tone: 5/5 Fun. Cartoony. Pirates. Great things working great together.Personal skew: 4/5 This is a pretty easy and short game. If you are a hardcore point & click gamer who wants a challenge and for some reason you paid full price for this game, you'll probably feel pretty ripped off. But for me this game was great fun.. I don't recommend this game. Nice little adventure game, with some nice inspirations from Monkey Island in both its humor and setting (although with dog pirates instead). The magic and item use integration is a great idea.. this game is about dogs but it is not actually that good. Funny and sweet little point-and-click game about canine pirates. It's not that expensive so if you like adventures you should check this out!Собаки-пираты и квест старой школы но с одним отличием — все загадки в игре логичны и решаемы, а если уж совсем голова откажется работать, есть встроенная система подсказок и подсветки интерактивных предметов. За такую цену вполне себе добротный квест.. DO NOT BUY. While the game has some interesting elements and occasionally hilarious dialogue, the cons outweigh the pros. The "organic, intuitive" hint system is arbitrary at best, providing least help for difficult puzzles and excessive help for easy ones. It's also incapable of telling how much you have already solved. Much worse than that is the terrible handling of an extremely interesting plot. Aside from terrible pacing and difficulty knowing where to go next at times for story progression, the most important and crucial revelations are revealed through sudden, unexpected dialogue options or unintuitive question choices. Solemn and important scenes are switched into humor or blase gameplay so quickly that you have no time to process the emotional signifigance. Certain questions arise about the main plot - huge questions - that are either answered in the bonus content or not at all.Puzzle answers are just obvious enough to frustrate the player when their solution fails to work and then are told by the hint system to do exactly what they've done. Some very interesting puzzles are handled so poorly that instead of admiring the system you curse whoever wrote it. Scenes provide enormous eyecandy that you cannot interact with, and then numerous repeated items that you CAN click but have no point. Achieving 100% completeion takes either several playthroughs or use of a guide (I can confidently say I would never have finished without a guide due to the unintuitiveness of some puzzles), without content changing a bit. The bonus content is decent but not a selling point.All told, this game is at best a sub-par, disappointing waste of great potential. Not terrible, but could just be so much better.
