The Great Stroke-Off Adventure


This game is heavy on the “humor” side of things, with a variety of wacky characters, interesting scenes to explore, and an amusing, unique and interesting storyline.

The setting of the story takes place in a type of small “Amusement Park” called “Stickz & Ballz”. The main attraction of the park is the Mini-Golf Course (thus the Stickz & Ballz name), as well as a Haunted House of Mirrors and a Video Arcade, plus a large shop with snacks and souvenirs as well as more areas to explore.

The main character in the game that the player will control, goes by the name of Ned Flobolid.

Ned (who is around 16 years old) is working during his “summer-break” at the “Stickz & Ballz” amusement park, which is owned and operated by his Uncle Ernie. His parents gave him the choice to either work there for his Uncle during the summer, or to attend tutoring lessons at summer-school. So, Ned choose to work at the amusement park.

The story takes place during the day of “The Great Stroke-Off Competition”, in which teams are competing to win the trophy. During the opening scenes of the game, Uncle Ernie will tell Ned “Half of a Proverb”, and make it as a riddle for Ned to solve. So, in the course of the game, Ned will also find the “answer to the riddle of the proverb” as well.

Ned will have to do various tasks, solve various puzzles (some a bit bizarre), and interact with a few other characters in the game as the story unfolds.

At one point during the game, Ned can choose to help and befriend one of two opposing teams (One team being a group of “Nerds” and the other team a group of “Punks”). Deciding on which team Ned decides to help win the competition, will decide on what different puzzles Ned may have to solve as well as affecting the direction of the story.

*Note: This game should run fine on most versions of Windows.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.
