Fans of classic point-and-click adventures don't have much to laugh about these days. The glory days of elaborate produced titles seem to be over. Or are they?

Shakes & Fidget - The Adventure delivers the legendary comic art of Shakes & Fidget artist Marvin Clifford. Players can look forward to more than fifty locations, dozens of characters and monsters, crisp puzzles and over 20 hours of top-notch gaming fun. In addition, first-class voice acting and a superb orchestral soundtrack make the game a unique experience.

Developers KING Art (The Book of Unwritten Tales) and Playa Games (Shakes & Fidget) have joined forces, and together they want to develop a wonderfully wacky adventure game.

A Kickstarter campaign, looking for $295,237, will show whether there are still enough fans out there for such a project.

“Against the industry trend, we want to create a comprehensive classic adventure game,” says Jan Theysen, Creative Director at KING Art. “We are banking on players who want to experience a lively adventure scene. With sufficient support from our backers, we are ready to play our part!"

Backers can not only look forward to a brand-new point-and-click adventure, unique rewards are also on offer. From figures to an artbook to a pin-up calendar with lots of naked gnome skin (!): nothing is impossible in the crazy universe of Shakes & Fidget. Or how about being drawn by Marvin Clifford and immortalized as a character in the game?
