Flying over the penguin's hollow

Meet Vinnie, aka "The Trickster." In his dreams, he's a criminal mastermind, the terror of banks and the ladies. In reality, he's the guy who tried to break into a gumball machine, mistaking it for a safe, got his hand stuck, and screamed at it until the cops arrived.

About the Game

Meet Vinnie, aka "The Trickster." In his dreams, he's a criminal mastermind, the terror of banks and the ladies. In reality, he's the guy who tried to break into a gumball machine, mistaking it for a safe, got his hand stuck, and screamed at it until the cops arrived.

The judge's verdict was harsh but fair: "Clinical idiot." Destination: Penguin Hollow Island Mental Hospital.

Everything would be fine, free food and padded walls, but there's one little million-dollar problem. In the pocket of the coat the orderlies carelessly tossed into the evidence room lies a lottery ticket. A winning one. For a million. And the deadline to claim the prize is tomorrow at noon.

You have less than 24 hours to escape the ward, outsmart the orderlies, deceive the doctors (who are already out of their minds), and reach the city.

KEY FEATURES:

• The noir we deserve: Stylish 1930s graphics, jazz, rain mixed with ducks and straitjackets.

• Madman's logic: To solve the puzzles, you'll have to think not like a normal person, but like Vinnie.

• Time is running out: The clock is ticking! A race against time atmosphere, with a fortune at stake.

• Unique characters: The staff at Penguin's Hollow are more frightening than the patients. Find a common language with everyone, or you'll be stuck here forever.
