Jolly Rover is a comedic point-and-click adventure with 2D cartoon graphics. Its hero, a dachshund named Gaius James Rover, is the son of a famous clown who died in a tragic cannon accident. Gaius lives on a small Caribbean island with his uncle, who's trying to get into the rum trade. One day Gaius unwittingly taints a barrel of rum with tobacco and creates a potent brew which he names "Jolly Rover" after his late father. While his uncle is away, a lucrative contract for Jolly Rover arrives with payment up front. Gaius combines this with his meager savings, charters a ship, and sets out in hopes of raising more money to fulfill his lifelong dream of starting a traveling circus. Along the way, he encounters a bunch of pirates — and, of course, adventure. There are 25 characters altogether, and the story takes place across three different islands, with a total of 60 distinct backgrounds. It also features full voice acting. |
