The point and click adventures just keep coming! Plot of the Druid has released featuring some more sarcastic British humour and classic, hand-drawn art. It's currently in Early Access, with Native Linux support. Another that was funded via Kickstarter, with the developer receiving $32,303 to help make it real.
"A disgraced druid apprentice goes on a quest to prevent the world from going crazy by restoring balance to the forces of love, wisdom, and wealth. A mystical comedy adventure with sarcastic British wit, hand-drawn cartoon art, and an innovative shape-shifting ability for solving puzzles. Plot of the Druid is a classic-modern point-and-click game that’s reminiscent of Simon the Sorcerer, Discworld, and Harry Potter."

Players who play it now are beta testers, but for me that's fine. I guess, in a few weeks the worst bugs will be ironed out.
For people who want to play a full game, the game is not finished, there are chapters missing and will be added in the next weeks/months.
See more from me
