The Procession To Calvary is now out, permitting you to muck you manner by means of Renaissance paintings with the irreverence that I realized to understand as a Monty Python-loving teen. It’s some extent and click on ’em up “spiritual sequel” to Four Last Things which was additionally a foolish traditional work romp.
“The tyrant Heavenly Peter has escaped your clutches, and you have been tasked with the mission of finding him,” in accordance with Procession.
“You will steal a ship, feed a donkey, compete in a talent contest, assist an inept street magician, sing, dance, play the (magic?) flute, poke a man’s face, hunt for treasure and have a chat with Our Lord God Almighty… But will you find Heavenly Peter? And if you do, how will you take your revenge!?”
Your pointing and clicking is assisted by what it calls a “verb coin” system, which you’ll be able to see in the trailer. Instead of guessing what kinds of belongings you may be capable to do, clicking on stuff reveals potential actions to carry out. Poke a sleeping man’s face. Slash off the skirts of a suspiciously tall woman. Spank a Bishop, apparently, as betrayed by the achievements on Procession’s Steam web page. As one does, and all.
You also can homicide of us, although you’re warned in opposition to it. “Murdering anyone who stands in your way will serve as a useful method of skipping any puzzles you don’t like. But be warned; your actions might come back to haunt you.”
It all sounds fairly foolish, however simply the sort of foolish I choose as a 13-year-old bodily comedy appreciator caught in an grownup physique. “Gags about butts are taken very seriously,” Procession says. Good, as they need to be.
