An adaptation of a GK Chesterton novel, February 3, 2016

by MathBrush

As I played this, I thought, "What on earth is the intended genre here?" Then I discovered it was an adaptation of a G.K. Chesterton novel.

In this comic and somewhat surreal game, you play a jovial old fellow who is cheering people up.

I couldn't get past 30 points because I couldn't figure out how to call everyone down to join the party. That, combined with a few guess the verb issues, left me frustrated.

This game won the Golden Banana of discord.
