Grumpy Gumphrey Supersleuth
Gilbert Gumphrey is a veteran store detective, whose tasks range from the
complex to the mundane. They include putting out fires, rescuing children,
killing ducks, and getting the boss his afternoon cup of tea. Failure to do
any of these successfully can lead to the sack.
Grumpy Gumphrey Supersleuth is made up of 39 screens of puzzles. Each room
is viewed in forced-perspective 3D, and the perspective of a room is not
always the same as the perspective you entered it – however the initial
movement into the main space of the room is automated. A task is dictated to
you at the base of the screen, with instruction on where to find the objects
you need. Watch out for an umbrella, keys and a skateboard among other things.
You can hold multiple objects, cycling through them with the ‘S’ key.
