Genuinely funny games are still something of a rarity. So without wishing to dismiss or overlook the structural ingenuity and genre fluidity of a game that fuses a traditional point-and-click adventure with a modern indie platform-puzzler, the highest praise we can give Lair of the Clockwork God is simply that it made us laugh solidly from start to finish. Its central pair - the witheringly sarcastic alter-egos of creator Dan Marshall and co-writer Ben Ward - deliver gags with a seriously good hit rate.
Ben’s bladder joins the fun.
