The influence of Monty Python on Joe Richardson's work is undeniable, not only in Terry Gilliam-esque animation but also the overall tone and humour of the writing and scenarios. With such direct and successful comparisons available, it's a testament to the game that it manages to feel like it's own thing.

Drawing on the art of the Renaissance era, the scenarios you're placed in seem utterly bizarre until you looks at the paintings that inspired them, with just the right level of self awareness about them in the writing and dialogue to not feel heavy handed. The absurdity also lends itself to some of the more out-there solutions you sometimes see in point and click games, although it would perhaps benefit from a smidgen more guidance - it wouldn't have to be a lot, but small things like some dialogues with hints being said more than once wouldn't go a miss.

The Processions to Cavalry is short and sweet and while I would have liked to see a few more areas to explore and solve silly puzzles in, I certainly appreciate the effort that has gone into recreating these classic paintings and portraits as environments and characters
