People, myself included, actually miss dealing with crap like this in games. ![]() I had to reload an older save and get the helm again. Oh, and when I returned to distract the blacksmith again, his horse hadn’t returned. That’s not too bad, except that when you try to examine the guy earlier in the game, his head pops off and disappears into a trunk, and there is literally no reason to assume that the helm is obtainable from that point. I gave up, looked up the answer online, and found out that you have to grab a helm off of a corpse in the woods to use as a container. Whoops! I reloaded a save, put the tongs back, and then searched the entire area for almost two hours. I searched around town for a while with no luck, and when I returned to the blacksmith, he had me arrested for stealing his tongs. The tongs aren’t good enough either you need some sort of container. You can’t just put the teeth in the forge, though. Then I tried to use the teeth on the forge. As he ran after his horse, I made my way over to the forge, feeling a little smug that I had solved the puzzle so easily. After some time, I worked out that you had to scare his horse to distract him (while in sneak mode and with his back turned-otherwise you’ll get caught and it’s an instant game over. Of course he wouldn’t, that’d be too easy. I took the teeth to the blacksmith, but of course he wouldn’t melt the teeth down for me. He wants you to melt them down into a medallion. See, it’s not enough to just hand Kurdt the silver teeth. From there, you cut out the thing’s teeth, and that’s where things get a bit… adventure game-y. Like a good adventure game player, I shrugged and said, “Sure.”Īfter slaying the creature, I used my sword to cut off its head, which I carried around for a few screens because you never know. After defeating him in a drinking game, he sent me to kill a beast in the woods and retrieve its silver teeth. I’m always up for a good round of drinking, so I decided to speak with Kurdt, a muscle-bound bar patron who buys people drinks when they make fun of his nosehair. Once you’ve spoken with the locals and watched the execution, the sun goes down and what you do next determines which path you take through the game. ![]() The narrator, in particular, does a good job of relaying information to you in a snarky, smug manner similar to that of Space Quest. While the build of the game I played lacked certain sound files (including dialogue), what was there was pretty solid the characters all have unique personalities and quirks, even the insignificant ones. The first goal of the game is to get to know the locals before attending an execution. The game has players control William Roehm, a charming but devious man on the run, as he arrives at the quaint little town of Volksville. In the short time I’ve had with Quest for Infamy, I’ve felt like a time traveler-I remembered being a kid, sitting in front of a computer for hours- hours-trying to figure out what to do in Space Quest. Quest for Infamy is a bit different from those games, because it isn’t just trying to update those games-it’s trying to be one of them. Among them, very few manage to live up to the adventure games of the 90s, with their strangely compelling dialogue, fantastic voice acting, and brutal difficulty. Thanks to Kickstarter, the world has plenty of modern point-and-click adventure games. ![]()
