That being said, it’s still tricky to wrestle gamers away from the likes of adrenaline pumping platformers by offering a chilled-out adventure full of exploration and witty conversation. But what if I told you that British developers Size Five Games (The Swindle) had a desire to merge platforming with pointing and clicking. Would this bizarre mash-up, titled Lair of the Clockwork God, be able to pull it off and be a success, or will it result in an adventure that nobody wants to go on?”
