A point-and-click adventure game cobbled together from repurposed Renaissance-era paintings and public domain classical music is not something I knew I needed in my life, but then I saw the trailer for Joe Richardson’s Four Last Things and I instantly wondered how I’ve lived so long without it. Since I could never come up with a better description for the game as Richardson has already done, I’ll simply quote him when he describes Four Last Things as “kind of like if Monkey Island had been made in 16th century Flanders by a time-travelling Monty Python fanboy." Watch the trailer and you’ll see just how on-point that description is.

Four Last Things began life as a submission in Game Jolt’s Adventure Jam 2016, and following a lot of awards and praise and a Kickstarter campaign it was turned into a full-fledged game and released on Steam in February of last year, where it has garnered very positive reviews from players. It seems like a natural fit to bring point-and-click adventure games from desktop to mobile, and that’s exactly what Richardson is doing on January 25th when Four Last Things arrives on both Android and iOS at a price of $3.99. It looks gloriously silly and when things like “Nonsense" and “Piffle" are listed amongst its features you know you’ll be in for a good time when Four Last Things arrives next week.
