that reminds me other spanish stuff like Capitan Trueno... and wasn't Lorna all about saving her favourite sex toy robot? :lol:

Get Me To The Church On Time is a text adventure where you have to get the groom to his wedding after his stag night.

In terms of anti-romance there's Run, Bronwyn, Run where you have to help a Princess escape in order to avoid marrying a loathsome Prince.

I don't have anything cool to put here, so i'll just be off now to see a priest with yeast stuck between his teeth and his friend called Keith who's a hairpiece thief...

Now, why didn't I think of that one...?! :)

The previous game, First Past the Post, involves you trying to retrieve a letter that the main character regretted sending to his girlfriend. The third game in the series, Man About the House, involves you having to clean your house (and fix various other problems) before collecting your wife (and new baby!) from the hospital.

I have it on good authority that the author of the adventures did not have a girlfriend, so who knows where all these ideas came from. :) :D
