Eider Cake

In this bird nun game, you are a bird, but not a nun. You work in an abbey as a servant, and you need to help prepare a meal for the abbess. The recipe book the cook needs is missing, so you have to go fetch it.

It's a graphical game, and contains things like illustrated manuscripts with humans replaced by birds, which is pretty funny.

Gameplay is pretty simple, a lot of it is 'find the book on the screen and click on it', so more like point and click adventures, while the rest is 'go to a room and talk to whoever is there, asking one of three questions'. I played twice, to check if I missed anything (and I might have) and I found more lore on the second time around.

I thought it was a fun idea. As an interactive fiction game, it relies fairly heavily on the graphics, but the lore details like the story of St Eider round it out for me.
