Rating: 4.5/5
In the US, this game was published as Woodruff and the Schnibble. It's full name (as you see in the title) is: The Bizarre Adventures of Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azeroth. Is it any wonder that it didn't really sell that well? XD Woodruff was created by Coktel Vision - the same wacky Frenchmen responsible for Gobliiins, Gobliins 2, and Goblins 3 (yes I spelled those correctly) and published by Sierra Online in the 90's. This game is wacky, weird, and completely delightful. One warning, though: IT MAKES LITTLE SENSE. The story is actually pretty fun, but don't expect it to unfold in a traditional English storytelling method. This is a point-and-click adventure in the truest sense in that you should point and click on EVERYTHING and try every item on every thing even if it makes no sense to do so. The interface can be a little clunky, but you'll get the hang of it. And, as with all Adventure RPG's: save and save often.
