Created by UK-based solo developer Joe Richardson, The Procession To
Calvary is an adventure game that evokes the surreal humour of Monty
Python, and is crafted entirely from hundreds of Renaissance
paintings, with works from renowned masters such as Rembrandt,
Bosch, and Michelangelo painstakingly cut and pasted into a madcap
montage of invigorating imagery.
In The Procession To Calvary, players embark on a quest as an
unnamed heroine to hunt down the tyrant Heavenly Peter. A bizarre
cast of characters, perplexing puzzles, and implausible scenarios
ensures the journey is a thoroughly absurd escapade.
The Procession to Calvary is a Pythonesque adventure game in which
you journey through a richly detailed landscape built from hundreds
of Renaissance paintings.
Huzzah! The holy war is over! Your oppressors have been vanquished,
the churches of the Old God lay in ruin and thousands of innocent
people have been murdered! But it's not all good news; the tyrant
Heavenly Peter has escaped your clutches, and you have been tasked
with finding him…

sense!
