I WISH I HAD A PHYSICAL COPY OF THIS GAME SO I COULD HUG IT. Dropsy is such a special game, and if you have the chance to play it you should.

June 2025
Dropsy is one of the weirdest, most heartfelt point-and-click adventures I’ve ever played. You control a misunderstood clown who speaks in pictures, hugs everyone he meets, and slowly uncovers a story that’s both surreal and surprisingly emotional. The art is vibrant and unsettling in just the right way, and the soundtrack is an absolute gem. That said—be prepared to do a lot of wandering. The game gives very little direction, and puzzle hints are often vague or completely abstract. Combine that with a fairly large world map and slow movement speed, and it’s easy to find yourself lost, both figuratively and literally. I wanted to solve it all on my own, but I’ll admit: I had to turn to a guide more than once. Still, despite those frustrations, the charm, creativity, and emotional core of Dropsy pulled me through. If you're patient, curious, and not afraid to look up a hint or two, this game might be worth a play for you.

Great game, really recommend to anyone who wants a good old adventure game with very limited interaction... ...but the achievements are buggy and cruel. Had to minimise the screen and restart before most of the achievements popped, and one of them required having the squeaky clown shoe noise on (which if you remember to tick it, takes 2/3rds of the game to achieve). Such a shame too, as the music for this game is a great mix of jazzy numbers. Plot is good; main character is, well, lets just say he's a bit of a super-clown. Anyway, recommend for those loving plots and stories, don't recommend for those who get nervous about achievements not popping!

Too dumb to play without peeking in the walkthrough. Too dumb to follow the walkthrough. A few bugs detected, will restart the game and complete the quests in different order. Dropsy is the best, loved him. Now want a hug. TT

What does it say about me that a barely-sentient nightmarish clown feels like a self-insert (for me, not Jay Tholen, no offense Jay; Project1: It's Time) So like, Dropsy is exactly what every adventure game should be. Gorgeous, great audio, interesting yet ridiculous story, just enough going on in the background to keep you wondering what is coming next, and most importantly never leaving you feeling like you have absolutely no idea what is going on nor how you can possibly find a way to progress further. Make no mistake, I was there 3,000 years ago for the earliest days of (graphical anyway) adventure games, and I understand back then that puzzles requiring brute force solutions like using every item in the game on every object in the environment were commonplace and basically expected, but I hated them then and I hate them now. Kudos to any game that avoids that artificial game length extension technique entirely, like Dropsy does! Hooray!
