This games is build with passion, patience and silliness in mind. Based only on medieval and renaissance paintings this point and click adventure is a feast of goofiness. Following the quest of Bellona to kill Saint Peter and bring back war, we encounter several biblical figures and motives, entangled in quirky situations ranging from face palming stupid to meta-clever. Solo developer Joe Richardson is not shy, to break the fourth wall to make fun not only about the protagonist, but the developer and the player as well. The pretty flat and direct humor a la Monty Python meets a unique and elaborate art-style, which makes you shake your head more than once and if you look closely, is loaded with so many hidden references. Gameplaywise it is a basic point and click, with solid puzzles and some stretches of serious backtracking. The characters we meet are simultaneously tragic and silly and the music we are listining is on the edge of authentic and utterly nerve-racking. When you pick up this game, expect a self-referential black humored satire, which focuses on delivering a unique style to cover up a stupid plot and a basic gameplay experience. But man, this game will stick to your brain, I can guarantee!
