In Lord Winklebottom Investigates you play as a pipe smoking, monocle wearing, top hatted giraffe, who also happens to be the world’s greatest detective. This giraffe is, of course, the titular Lord Winklebottom. Assisted by his faithful hippopotamus companion, Dr Frumple, Lord Winklebottom is about to tackle his greatest case to date.
If that synopsis doesn’t perk your interest in this game, then I don’t know what else to write.
The demo I played at EGX covers the first step in Lord Winklebottom’s adventure – finding passage to the Isle of Barghest. To achieve this I had to help the local dockhand, a puffin, fix his boat and cause minor chaos at the local pub.
