8th day of the vacation - The Book of Unwritten Tales (PC)

The 8th day of my  vacation was spent playing that quite an old point-and-click adventure called 'The Book of Unwritten Tales'. It's a funny quest about three (well, actually, 3,5) good guys trying to find a mighty artifact and hide it from the forces of evil, because the one who holds that artifact will rule the world. One of them is a halfling seeking for the archmage to give him a magic ring. Another one is an elf princess seeking for the same to give away a magic book. And the last 1,5 is a human with some funny critter, they just love adventures.

So, together or apart, they visit different parts of the game world and do different funny things like 'hacking' the monkey server of the local 'MMORPG' with accountants, revenue inspectors, tax bills and overall fantastic world with no elfs, dragons or orcs, or take the mickey out of a gay paladin, or help a pink dragon-girl become a horrifying monster... that sort of things. And sometimes the puzzles were just exploding my brain, so inadequate the solutions were.

'The Book of Unwritten Tales' has a wonderful humor in everything, sometimes it's just stuggering with sudden actions or replies showing something really funny and laughable. The game contains tons of parody and 'easter eggs'. But there's another side of this humor and parody. We've seen this all before in 'Tales of Monkey Island'. And the BoUT is just a more modern 'version' of it, it doesn't show anything new.

But still the game is cute and funny, so if you like this genre, you gotta play 'The Book of Unwritten Tales'.
