Lord Winklebottom Investigates Porting to Consoles
Sheffield, UK - August 7th, in the year of our Lord 2019 -
Charlotte Sutherland, solo Developer at Cave Monsters, has today
announced that Kickstarter success “Lord Winklebottom Investigates”
will be coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4 in 2020. The game,
which has also previously been announced for PC, Mac, Linux and
Nintendo Switch, is a classic point and click adventure with a
fetching hand-drawn art style and a jolly good sense of humour!
Set in the roaring ‘20s, the world’s foremost giraffe detective is
about to embark on his most challenging case yet. A mysterious
invitation to an isolated island results in a grisly murder and a
race against time to track down the killer. Thankfully, there’s
nobody better to crack the case than the great detective and
gentleman, Lord Winklebottom.
Join Lord Winklebottom and his steadfast companion, Dr Frumple as
they investigate the murder of their old friend. Uncover clues,
interrogate suspects and solve puzzles to crack the case. Our daring
detective will put his neck on the line to capture the killer and
uncover the horrifying dark secret at the heart of the Isle of
Barghest!
“Lord Winklebottom is homage to detective stories, particularly
those set in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, such as
Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie and the Paul Temple mysteries.”
said creator Charlotte Sutherland, "I'm really excited to bring the
strange world of Lord Winklebottom and its bizarre cast of
anthropomorphic animals to life, and can't wait for people to get
the chance to play it”.
