The Idiot's Tale is an old-school point-and-click adventure game with a truly warped sense of humor.
You are Sir Jimothy Quest, a noble-but-ignorant knight-errant in the medieval kingdom of Dodotry. With your trusty sidekick Hoover the Owl, you'll venture across the land in search of legendary lost treasures. Along the way, you'll encounter fearsome monsters, classic fairy tale characters, corporate fast food, and more puzzles than you can shake your cursor at.
Can you find all three treasures and save the day? Or are you just gonna run away like an idiot?
