Jolly Rover – это нова игра жанра поинт-энд-клик, разработанная австралийской командой программистов Brawsome. В основе сюжета – трогательная история пса Гайа Джеймса Ровера (Gaius James Rover), который больше всего на свете хотел бы выступать в цирке, как его горячо любимый отец. Дело в том, что отец Ровера, известный клоун, погиб, выполняя трюк с пневмопушкой. Так что Гай, всю жизнь мечтавший пойти по стопам отца, решает отправиться на Пьяный остров, дабы начать свою цирковую карьеру. Помимо 60 красочных локаций, игроков ожидают 25 отлично озвученных персонажей. Так что любителям поинт-энд-кликов не придется скучать, даже не смотря на то, что Jolly Rover - это классическая двухмерная адвенчура с простым интерфейсом и системой подсказок, которая поможет игрокам преодолеть наиболее сложные моменты. А чтобы играть в Jolly Rover стало еще интереснее, создатели добавили хорошую порцию доброго юмора.


It be the golden age of pirates! Dogs of the sea! Quite literally.
Our swashbuckling sausage-dog star is Gaius James Rover, son of the famous clown Jolly Rover, who died from a blow to the groin from an improperly loaded joke cannon.
Following the tragically comedic death of his father, young Gaius, who insists on using his middle name James, goes to live with his uncle, a wealthy plantation owner on a small Caribbean island. While practising a particularly tricky juggling move, he accidentally taints a barrel of rum with tobacco, creating a potent and addictive brew which he coins ‘Jolly Rover’, one of the most prized substances in the Caribbean.
Alas, the wealth of Jolly Rover sales only manages to fill the pockets of his uncle, and Gaius longs for action and adventure and, more importantly, the opportunity to start his own circus and follow in the footsteps of his father.
It is not long before the fumbled juggling ball of opportunity raps Gaius smartly on the head yet again. While his uncle is away, a large contract for Jolly Rover arrives from Guy DeSilver, Governor of the notorious Groggy Island, with payment upfront!
In a blinding flurry of optimism, Gaius pools his meagre savings with this advance and charters a ship and crew to take him to Groggy Island. Along the way he meets a colourful band of seafaring cutthroats, scallywags and rogues otherwise known as pirates.
It is here we begin to follow the short and stubby tail of Gaius across three wild and untamed tropical islands, as he attempts to fulfil his dream of starting a circus, hampered only by pirates, villains, voodoo, love and considerable lack of loot.
Jolly Rover is a traditional 2D point and click adventure, including casual elements, such as an integrated hint system, and task bar. Bonus elements include unlockable Captain Bio's, music, concept art and developer commentary!
