An afternoon's worth of amusing gameplay

The Good
The basic premise of the game is that Quiver Dick is telling a tale about the adventures of his younger self to his grandchildren. This works well and sets up a dialogue between the old man as narrator and his younger self, much of the humour comes from their banter.

This is a good game. The music may come from public domain music sets but it is either very good or very well used, probably a bit of both because though it was good enough to be noticed it added to the game without becoming a feature.
The artwork is good too as are the writing and sound effects.



The Bad
There's nothing to dislike about this game, it is small but perfectly formed. However it may not be everyone's cup of tea as there is bad language and lots of lewd humour such as fighting "The Cockness Monster" or being hit by a Bukkake Attack in another battle.
If was really picky I'd say that the game was not as funny as advertised, it was amusing but I did not laugh out loud - but then again that could just be me.

The Bottom Line
This is a good but short game, according to my Steam account I have completed it in 2.9 hours and I wasn't racing through it. If you don't object to this kind of humour and are not put off by strong language then I recommend this game.
