The Bizarre Adventures of Woodruff and the Schnibble (1995)
The Bizarre Adventures of Woodruff and the Schnibble is a 1995 point-and-click video game made by Coktel Vision and Sierra On-Line.
Woodruff and the Schnibble of Azimuth drops players into a post-apocalyptic city where primitive Bourgies are kept in miserable subjugation by the technologically advanced Bigwig elite. Young Woodruff is raised in secret by his adoptive father Javin, who is abruptly taken from him. What follows is a dense, wildly inventive point-and-click adventure with the painted cartoon aesthetic and offbeat puzzle logic Pierre Gilhodes perfected in the Gobliiins series, applied here to a world sharp enough to carry genuine satirical weight alongside the absurdity.
