I'm 3 hours into "A Twisted Tale" and this world is even crazier than I thought!

I could eat here...

While there aren't THAT many locations to visit in this chapter (nine screen in all I believe, some of them scroll sideways...) I already must've walked for miles in this game! It's almost like, people don't stay where they are, and other conditions and environments change over time as well, as you progress through the story and puzzles. So I'm constantly exploring, looking for new things, talking to people again and again.

Gnarly grandma!

My favorite must be the restaurant owner, he's so overly melodramatic, worried like a mother hen about his pet cockroach Roachy who is supposed to power the jukebox but it has broken down and Roachy has disappeared. His customer Gloria "The Beldame" Black is still looking to rinse her teeth after her turkey dinner. Then there's Ned the tattoo artist who's actually terrified of needles, a practicing opera singer who keeps throwing (usefull!) stuff at me as I interrupt him. Then there's couple made in heaven Betty and Hermann, whose stuff I want to nick but they won't move until Hermann catches his chicken.

Love the artwork in this game. The free-style tattoos, not so much...

All things I think I need to acccomplish first before I get a chance to win back my cube. Which is being held hostage by the antique shop owner, who at least has said he's willing to part with it in exchange for this rare man-eating plant.

Lots of adventure game fan service here!

I've got lots of inventory items but I'm still not sure how I can use them. I've got scissors but they are blunt, pliers but they are rusty, then I found some exotic stuff but turned out I just had to drop them in a goldfish bowl for ornamentation (I guess there's a hidden achievement here somewhere...)

I think I need to go talk to all NPC's again, see if I can't discover any extra clues...
