Description

Pilfer from poets, bargain with bishops and serenade the local simpleton on your hapless quest for absolution. Four Last Things is a point-and-click adventure game made from Renaissance-era paintings. It's kind of like if Monkey Island had been made in 16th century Flanders by a time-travelling Monty Python fanboy.

History

Four Last Things started out as a submission for Game Jolt's Adventure Jam 2016. The prototype received a Judges Pick and was voted Best Game Overall in the public vote. I then went on to run a Kickstarter campaign to help fund the full game. The prototype was also shown at last years AdventureX in London, and has featured in a number of terrible dreams I had recently where my life falls apart around me. Since the Kickstarter project ended I have been working on Four Last Things, all alone (sad face), pretty much full-time. I'm flipping out right now.

    - KJ Robertson, Alpha Beta Gamer
  • "I’m so tickled with this game, I cannot even express it properly. The sense of humor matches the Monty Python inspired artwork - it’s dry, blunt, intelligent, yet crude. "
