Yorkshire Gubbins

Yorkshire Gubbins is a collection of short, fully voiced point-and-click comedy adventures. Its episodes feature a bride cloned by a slug monster on her wedding day, a robot fleeing a “Spork Jogger,” two print and trophy shop owners who are devoted to LARPing, a celebrity chef with a terrible secret in his underpants, and a tyrannical business leader who makes everyone sing. One episode is a musical.

Episodes

• Verb School: a tutorial or a baby judging competition.
• Holy Molluscamony: a bride has been cloned, and you can save her wedding—or not.
• Humble Pie: The Quest For Special Meat.
• Aye Fair Lady: on Mandatory Singing Day, the episode becomes a musical.

Style and presentation

The adventures use a classic, easter-egg-filled “SCUMM” style verb interface. STEGGYVISION turns the horror of Yorkshire into a fantasy dream world, and a dynamic music system accompanies the game. The cast of regional performers voices the characters in their own accents. The collection is suited to new, casual and experienced adventure game players.
