www.hardcoregaming101.net/woodruff/woodruff.htmWoodruff is often lumped in with the Goblins games because of the similar visual style, but it's actually it's very own thing, drawing influence from many SciFi classics to mash them together into Dadaist absurdity.

One of those games you used to see all the time on sites like Home of the Underdogs. I enjoyed reading about it in the Guide book, so it's nice to see the article here now.

I really enjoyed playing those back in the days. In europe they were quite successful AFAIR.
When you play adventure games, you`ll eventually come across sections, were you`re hopelessly stuck. You click around and try to use everything with every thing. What Cocktel (tehe) did was to build a game around that, with just those "stuck scenes". To me that`s the adventure equivalent to a grind RPG. So I guess it`s a hate-love thing.
Edit: This probably should have better gone into the Goblins thread, sorry -.-

I think to this date, Woodruff is still my number one favourite point & click adventure game, despite being far from the refinement of its lauded Lucas Arts brethren. It's just so gloriously different and... well, French.

Lookie there, Pierre Gilhodes is back - with a webtoon that indicates a possible return of Woodruff and the Bouzouks at least in animated form.
