Bertram Fiddle Episode 2

 
New Save Game System implementedNov 5, 2018 - Community AnnouncementsWe've recently updated the game with a new chapter select system so that the game can be restarted from the beginning of each chapter, rather than having to start from the beginning. We've also fixed some of the bugs that have been reported to make for a much more enjoyable experience. The extra pigeons I wanted to add have yet to be implemented.Patch 1.2.2 hotfix is LIVE! Changelog insideSep 2, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsHello everyone on this busy, sunny Saturday! Another wave of fixes for Bertram's new adventure. Unfortunately, to get the full effects of the fixes in this patch, you will need to start a new save game. Thanks for your patience! Fixes in this wave: Fixed an issue where the Mr Hyde's transform particles would always fire on scene start Fixed an issue where Bertram would say "No, I dont think that will work" when throwing the pipe through the window even while the guard had gone Fixed an issue where there was a lack of save points during the Prison puzzle, causing cross puzzle contamination and breaking things Fixed an issue with the Unicorn Horn puzzle, where the flow would allow people to swap the unicorn horn before the ladder was placed Unicorn Horn puzzle has been rebuilt with a new, more solid flow. You must trap the concierge first > then place ladder > then swamp with ice-cream cone > then exit. Fixed an issue where clicking the Unicorn Horn twice depending on what stage of the puzzle you're in would cause a hard crash Fixed a rare issue with the Prison door that would cause Bertram to lose his head, poor Bertram!

Music should end and start with a new theme on a new scene Fixed very minor issue with Scene Exit interactions often using the wrong icons Fixed issue where using any item on Guy Hardwood would make Gavin say his lines Fixed an issue where Walter's lines would sometimes not trigger, or by de-sync'd Fixed an issue where Bertram would have lines for the Cane even long after Gavin picked it up earlier, in the Hat Shop Slight animation and positional fixes for th...Patch 1.2.2 hotfix is LIVE!

A Bleaker Predicklement follows on from the events of 2015’s A Dreadly Business and it’s “almost quadruple the size” of that outing, say developers Rumpus. Mr Fiddle is a well-to-do adventurer with waistcoat and a bow tie who’s fallen on hard times. Funding for expeditions has dried up so he’s taken a job as a soap factory to make ends meet, but he soon gets caught up in a murder mystery and has to track down the killer. That involves trudging around the big smoke speaking to lots of suspicious folk, battling monsters and solving puzzles.
