comment |
The Strange and Somewhat Sinister Tale of the House at Desert Bridge isn't actually a video game, but we don't have a "Transdimensional Window" namespace, so "video game" will have to do.The window, which functions in a way similar to a Point-and-Click Game, was created by Jonas Kyratzes to let you access the Lands Of Dream, where the inventor Old Man Bill has disappeared, leaving his house and creations behind. Explore the House on Desert Bridge, interact with its strange inhabitants, and discover the truth about Bill's whereabouts. |

comment |
Hamster-Wheel Power: The House is powered by giant hamsters running on wheels. Unfortunately, they haven't been fed, so at the start, the House is running on backup power. |

Wise Old Turtle: Zathras is very old, from before the desert was a desert. Zathras remembers all of it. Zathras knows. |

comment |
No Fourth Wall: The "game" is actually a window that lets the creator and you interact with another world. All the characters are talking to you, not an avatar that you are controlling through the game interface. The game window is actually an in-game item that you can interact with. |

comment |
Crapsaccharine World: The setting is colorful, whimsical, and happy, but there are hints of something dark. Most of it is caused by the evil Lord Urizen massacring anything and anyone in the way of a perfectly efficient "machine". |

Bittersweet Ending: Old Man Bill has abandoned the house, but the other residents are more capable than he thought they were, and manage to flee from Urizen's army, promising that some day, they'll reunite. |

comment |
Wham Shot: The shot of Urizen's army approaching over the horizon hammers in that this isn't just a funny and weird adventure in a strange land, and that you need to solve the mystery of Bill's disappearance fast. |

Sequence Breaking: Many puzzles are just there to give you passwords. If you know the passwords from a previous playthrough or reading a guide, you can skip most puzzles in the game. |
