tiny & Tall: Gleipnir, Part One is a classic yet modern point'n'click adventure, inspired by LucasArt's legendary titles.

Two barely competent and charmingly inept blacksmiths find themselves contractually bound to the Norse gods and have to explore a lovingly handcrafted world in a quest for unusual and magical objects. But while they look for these ingredients, the sinister gaze of Loki, the Trickster god, casts an evil shadow on their path...

Solve (not so) convoluted puzzles, talk to eccentric characters and discover an epic Norse legend!
  • Old-school gameplay with a modern realization
  • More than 50 handpainted (on a computer) levels
  • A unique soundtrack
  • An entirely optional clue system
  • Lots of jokes, almost none directed against the fourth wall

Thor fears that his nephew will become more powerful than all the gods combined, an unstoppable force that will devour all mankind.

Loki's son Fenrir, is a wolf that recognizes no authority. He devours men and gods alike. Thor fears that his nephew will become more powerful than all the gods combined, an unstoppable force that will devour all mankind. The gods have banished Fenrir to the Island of Lyngvi and ordered that he be chained at all times, but no chain has been able to hold the powerful wolf. Thor knows there is only one solution to this problem, the chain must be forged by the Dwarves themselves...so our story begins in a tiny & TALL house owned by two blacksmiths tasked with an impossible job, forging an unbreakable chain to hold the son of Loki, the god of mischief, the trickster god who doesn't seem to be all on board with this cruel and unusual punishment they have bestowed upon his firstborn son.
What an amazing little point and click adventure! These developers have quite a sarcastic sense of humor! If you aren't familiar with the in's and out's of a Point & Click Adventure it might seem overwhelming if you are used to a hand-holding HOPA but if you give yourself a few minutes to adjust to the game mechanics, I think you'll find that this is a very easy game to learn on.
Point the cursor and the character will move to that area, scan the mouse over the area, when the cursor turns red, that item can be picked up or interacted with. If you click the Space Bar, all areas of interest will be highlighted. Your Inventory goes into your Backpack, when you click on the backpack all the items will appear in boxes. Some items can be combined by dragging one item to another (drag one box to another) If you don't know what to do, you can go to Tall and ask him, he will eventually tell you the answer, but you will get minor hints at first in the form of multiple-choice questions to ask (and get answers) until you eventually get a direct answer.
This is an adventure, there are no hidden object scenes! You will be tasked with quests and those quests must be solved by searching rooms, overcoming obstacles, and figuring out normal solutions to ordinary problems. Yes, you will probably have to think about a few things, but as I said earlier, this is an easy game, the solutions are fairly simple solutions. If you can't figure out a solution to open something, for example, you probably missed an inventory item, so just go back to the rooms and hit the space bar to see if you missed something. If all else fails, you can look up a walkthrough online!
It's a nice change of pace and certainly more fun than 95% of today's HOPA's! Thank you BF, please offer move adventure games, I don't care how old they are! Show less

Yay ! Finally a point and click adventure game. Fun, cute, charming and funny. Requires you to use your brain cells but once you get the hang of it, it is not super difficult. The characters move around much easier than they did in the old point and click adventure games.
Wish we would get more of these types of games, definitely more fun than HOPA games IMO.

A must buy for me within the 1st half 'n hour in the game. It is witty, funny, makes me think and I just like the style of it. If you are a fan of the Tiny Bang story, The inner world, Fire, Leaves or suchlike, try it out.

Based on the demo.
tiny must go about finding things and tidying up so that he and Tall can forge a super, indestructible something to hold Loki's son, who will eat the world given half the chance.
The graphics are perfect for this kind of game, and the dialog is really funny. I am totally enjoying the gameplay and am off to buy it right now. Oh, and I love the background music.

I LOVE adventure games and this one was an instant buy after the demo. I love the dialogue that moves the story along (and sometimes Tiny, as I, may know what I need to do but cannot figure out just how to accomplish it..lol). The humor is great and double-clicking Tiny to a location does speed him up a wee bit it seems. After sitting on monthly game credits and PCCs for a while lately (I've been ...Show more
I LOVE adventure games and this one was an instant buy after the demo. I love the dialogue that moves the story along (and sometimes Tiny, as I, may know what I need to do but cannot figure out just how to accomplish it..lol). The humor is great and double-clicking Tiny to a location does speed him up a wee bit it seems. After sitting on monthly game credits and PCCs for a while lately (I've been buying OLD games since nothing new has really been worth it) I have almost used them all up this week and this game was one for sure.
If you do not like dialogue to advance the story (and hardcore adventure games often have MUCH more dialogue than this one) you may not care for this. But give the demo a try. This is SE-priced and that is more than half the price of the game on Steam. Show less

I've been waiting for something like this for years. I guess it's not so exciting for younger hidden-object addict people who are not familiar with this kind. I am still hoping for more to come.

I adore point and click adventure games. This one is a TRUE masterpiece/gem.
Those who know, will agree.
The rest, can go back to their ubiquitous hogs....
We all have different tastes and I for one am thrilled...

However, at least try this game. It makes you think (which is a good thing) and it has all the elements of seeking, searching, finding, and figuring out what to do. You can always go to Mr. Tall and ask him what to do-he will make you laugh. Enjoy TRY THIS GAME! Show less
