Jolly Rover
Pirate Dogs! Heavily influenced by and frequently referencing Monkey Island, Brawsome's Jolly Rover is a treat for fans who've exhausted LucasArts' series and are looking for something similar. Playing as Gaius James Rover -- who just wants to join the circus like his father -- you're kidnapped by pirates while delivering a potent brew called Jolly Rover (accidentally created by mixing tobacco and rum). This sets off a chain of events that leads you to becoming a pirate and having a very enjoyable -- and often hilarious -- adventure. Also, there's a parrot that gives you hints if you feed him crackers. Brilliant.
