[First Impression] Tick's Tales

This post is part of my "First Impression" series:

I'm playing & posting about the games from my backlog. Here I write about them and think whether I'd try finishing them or not. Though many of them are from Indiegala.

Tick's Tales

It's a humorous adventure game.
With retro-style graphics and puzzles.

The story puts you in control Tick, a mischievous boy who dreams to become a knight. His motive is that if he became a knight he can impress Georgia McGorgeous to make her fall in love with him.

To become a knight he has to prove his courage, knowledge, and strength then pick up the sword in the stone. But how can he, the lazy mischievous boy do that?

In my first impression playthrough, I played the first two sections of the game. In the first Tick had to choose one of the potential destinies for himself (a janitor or gravedigger) and trick the old fairy to choose the third option.

I think this represents what this game is about...
Tricking people to gain the title of a knight.

Final Thoughts

The characters in the game are all funny. There's a genius boy who wrote many books, a 90-yrs-something-old damsel in distress! & an old magician that had a very bad past with our hero.

I loved how different the protagonist is than other heroes, and all the characters are interesting.

Though as a point-and-click game I found it hard to keep enjoying it when I spend more than half an hour trying to find the solution for some parts of the game. Maybe I should try a guide.

Will I try to complete this game?

Maybe...
This game has something to offer and the story isn't bad. I want to see how far it keeps me entertained.
