Bertram Fiddle: Episode 1

The Adventures of Bertram Fiddle is an amusing point and click game with a twist of action elements, expertly crafted by Rumpus Animation. The game takes place in Victorian London, populated by eccentric individuals with peculiarly large noses. As the self-proclaimed leading explorer, Bertram Fiddle, players must assist him in following clues to locate the mysterious serial killer, Geoff the Murderer, before he strikes once again - all in a classical tongue-in-cheek style.

As said by Bertram Fiddle himself, the game is “one of the best point-and-click murder mysteries with a comedic twist set in Victorian London”. The game has won the Best Narrative Award 2015 at the Tokyo Indie Game Fest.

The game features a combination of mystery, murder, humor, and dreadful puns. There are innumerable beautifully animated interactions with over 30 locations to explore, and an original 1970s B-movie-inspired soundtrack composed by Cam Reynolds that provides an authentic and immersive experience. The voice acting in the game is another distinctive characteristic. The action-packed scenes and stunning HD visuals add to the game’s overall appeal.

The Guardian describes Bertram Fiddle as "a game inspired by those classic point-and-click-and-laugh games of Monkey Island era, complete with a cast of peculiar characters and amusing moments centered around its murder-mystery plot." Indieretronews.com emphasizes that the game's impressive voice acting, well-crafted animation, Victorian-style puns, and innuendo will leave players highly entertained.
