有趣。
It's a cute gimmick for the first few scenes, then it gets boring fast, sorry. Really wanted to like this, as a fellow Terry Gilliam fan, but gameplay just extremely basic and there's not enough to keep me interested past the beginning.
In an age of A.I generated slop, soulless content, engagement farming, and low attention spans, very seldomly do I come across a game that truly moves me and revives my love of human artistry. Surprisingly, a bizarre renaissance-style point and click adventure about bribing 3 cardinals and assassinating a tyrannical holy leader managed to convey the excellence of creativity and comedy in a measly 3 hours then 90% of the multi-million dollar triple-A experiences in the game market. For 4 dollars, I experienced a bizarre and sometimes aggravating masterpiece that made me laugh with its sincerity and self-awareness. I am in awe of how the game developer managed to cobble hundreds of paintings together to create new environments and compelling animated characters, and how the frivolity and ridiculousness of these paintings were accurately conveyed in the story telling. From the dialogue, to the art direction, to the hilariously over-corrected animations, I am surprised that this video game developer did not receive a publisher. "Niche" perhaps but completely human made and human written, and full of passion and love all the same. I will be patiently awaiting any subsequent projects Joe Richardson creates, and I will be lovingly invested in his journey as a comedic director. THIS is what human creativity is, and THIS is what we need to cherish.
Muy divetido y me encanta el estilo artistico
De lo mejor que he jugado en los últimos años. Solo para adultos con la cabeza amueblada y con humor... muy negro. De ese que no deja títere con cabeza.
Original y muy divertido.
完全天才艺术品感谢作者以及作者美丽的精神状态...谁能拒绝在这么小而雅的游戏里体验到致死量的地狱笑话和和愤世嫉俗的政治学批判呢，如果这些不能满足你是的我们还有又臭又长的存在主义思考以及打破第四面墙的独游笑话。还有就是美术馆的对话和文本太好笑了第一次见到把金主黑得这么体无完肤的。另外女武神主角的一些细节设定也很萌比如不杀女人小孩小动物[spoiler]她决心大到甚至可以把你存档炸了[/spoiler]，虽然杀人上头但是对大多数事都有基本的正义感，以及可以给路过的每个音乐家喝彩很暖心。不杀人通关的两个结局很真实也看得人很惆怅，总之是能让人交替陷入狂笑和思考的好作品
[h1][b] TLDR: Renaissance art style is a treat, but the humor falls flat and moon-logic puzzles frustrate more than they charm.[/b] [/h1]
[h1]PROS: [/h1]
➕Graphics
➕Humor
➕Multiple endings
[h1]CONS: [/h1]
➖Due to the game’s absurdity, some of the puzzles can be overly challenging
[h1] [b] Content (Game world/Narrative) – [5/10] [/b] [/h1]
The game world takes place across multiple renaissance style backdrops. I’d say maybe ~20-30 scenes in all, so it's a fairly good variety. There isn’t much exploration or fun things to click around in the background, despite the beauty of it, it’s slightly disappointing.
The story is pretty absurd - You play as a female….knight(?) who wants to keep murdering people. Problem is, the holy war just ended so murdering has been outlawed on everyone except the enemy leader of the holy war. So because you want to keep murdering, you need to go find this guy. Cue zany travel shenanigans.
As for the writing, I found it okay. There’s many 4th wall breaking moments which were funny, and the character dialog is also fun considering the time period. That being said, I only laughed at a few parts. I expected more given the style and the first few moments of absurdity.
[h1][b] Gameplay (Mechanics/Difficulty) – [5/10] [/b] [/h1]
This is your typical point and click adventure game. You solve puzzles, get items, and then use the items in specific ways to solve more puzzles. Pretty traditional.
I’d say this game is fairly difficult, if only because of the absurdity.
The problem I often encounter with point and click games is how they fall back on using “Moon logic” instead of actual puzzles. This is a bigger problem here because of the wackiness of the game, none of the puzzles follow much logic, which results in heavy trial-and-error or simply a guide.
[h1] [b] Graphics (Quality/Technical) – [7/10] [/b] [/h1]
I’d say the graphics and art style is this games biggest strength. Right from the start, the game reminds me of those funny renaissance memes. I loved how this looked.
Tech side, game ran fine, not a lot of graphical options.
I noticed no bugs.
1440p @ 240hz | installed on SSD
[h1] [b] Audio – [6/10] [/b] [/h1]
Audio is fun, every scene seems to have its own illustrated musician playing. You can interact with them to see the name of the song.
There is no voice acting other than some screaming.
[h1] [b] Replay Factor (Longevity) – [4/10] [/b] [/h1]
There are multiple endings, which is nice, but this is a very short game. I almost 100% it in under 3 hours. I don’t see a point in replaying it other than enjoying the experience.
[h1] [b] Final Verdict – [5/10] [/b] [/h1]
The Procession to Calvary (PtC) is a quirky point-and-click adventure game that is unique in its graphical art style being based off renaissance paintings. It’s quite striking to look at. As you’ll be able to tell immediately from the opening, the game does not take itself seriously and focuses on its comedic tone to accompany its story. But does it succeed here?
I’d say no. To me, the vast majority of the writing’s humor fell flat. The murdery parts were pretty funny, in fact, I’d say anything to do with animation or the graphics were the best part, not so much the writing. Crossing a field of crucifixion victims only to get to an area of a thief being rotisseried while a guy in the back is being pulled apart in 4 directions by horses….yea all of this sounds super dark, but the way its delivered in game is pretty funny. At least from a dark humor standpoint. I just wish the writing was as good.
Other than the iffy comedy writing, you’re left with a great art style world, which you unfortunately can’t explore very much, and the point-and-click mechanics. I’d say these are good enough for me to give my recommendation, but just barely. The PaC mechs are pretty standard, but is worsened by the fact that the wacky story throws puzzle logic out of the window. The art style really won me over though.
Overall, barely a recommend.
[h1] [b] Recommend? (Price) [Y/N] [/b] [/h1]
[h1]Yes[/h1]
$9 is steep for a < 3 hour game. I suggest getting it on sale for ~$4

神人游戏，可惜我也是神人
NO MORE MURDERS!
Ce jeu est du pur génie ! 🤪
Very awesome artwork and really funny!
Nice art, great music, smart story. A short, simple, yet interesting and fun experience.
Why not recommend it if I liked it?
Excellent
Muy bueno
Very funny and original! As good as the first game if not better
A perfect game, beautifully crafted and whittly uproarious!
good
Certified Joe Richardson fan. Hail the python.
解密玩力竭了
Made friendship with a skunk
Exceedingly blasphemous and unfunny in ways only a Reddit atheist could envisage.
The puzzles are also less "puzzles" and more time wasting exercises. It is nearly impossible to complete without a walkthrough because none of the solutions make any sense.
Not quite the game for me.
Hilarious game. Even better than its predecessor! Highly recommended.
If you liked Four Last Things, you'll probably like this one (it has more gore though). If not, then you probably won't. If you didn't play it, go play it first, this is a sequel.
this game is super confusing and ♥♥♥♥. if you buy this game you have wasted your money. the jokes dont hit. the talent show sucks. i want my money back.
shout out to the street magician.
shout out obama
shout out my mom
10/10 would play again
Voll Toll!
Man muss Humor haben.
oder kiffen....
Hat Spaß gemacht.
Un point and click humoristique façon Monty Python qui ravira ceux qui apprécient l'époque de la Renaissance.
A ce prix, ce serait dommage de s'en priver.
[h1]Uma obra de arte escondida[/h1]
Eu não considero Point-Click um gênero de jogo, acredito ser mais uma história interativa, e por esse motivo não gosto desse nicho, porem algumas vezes você encontra joias escondidas no meio do lixo, ou melhor, obras de arte escondidas...
O "jogo" é engraçado, divertido e todo feito a partir de obras de arte, não sei como foi o processo de animação, mas é muito interessante ver pinturas sendo convertidas para animações interativas, de verdade.
Mesmo a história sendo bastante curta existem muitas imagens (obras de arte) para serem apreciadas, de certa forma você até pode ver como um estudo forçado sobre arte.
Tudo é feito com muito humor, muitas coisas bizarras e que às vezes parecem não fazer sentido, talvez não façam mesmo, mas o importante é que a história é bem construída, bem clara, você vai se divertir e talvez até mesmo aprenda a apreciar obras belíssimas.
Gostando ou não de arte ou point-click acredito que vale muito você conhecer esse titulo, eu gostaria de falar mais sobre a história, mas isso apenas estragaria sua experiência, não use guias ou assista vídeos, se ficar preso em alguma parte tente aproveitar ao máximo os seus neurônios, deixe a lógica e sua imaginação trabalhar um pouco.
good
劇情是對宗教、政治、藝術，乃至於整個西方文化的反諷，但卻又是個很吃西方文化素養的遊戲。
音樂是古典樂，場景、角色是文藝復興繪畫(女主角的人物設計居然是林布蘭！)不少謎題要有藝術史知識才容易想到。有道關卡還得唱歌劇
因為素材都是古典藝術，遊戲處處適合截圖。搭配不知嗑了什麼才想出來的惡搞劇情，是迷因愛好者不能錯過的遊戲。
muito divertido, vários finais, boa trilha sonora, e bem engraçado, vale a pena
I have played a some point and click adventurle like games and this one was quite refreshing to play. The Art Style is gorgeous, the Dialogue has a nice humor and the story and progression of the game is very creative.
👍🏻
Funny game!
A wonderful point-and-click quest with cool classical music and humor. It's quick and fun to play.
This is the second part of the game series. To start, play the first one, called Four Last Things.
謝謝yocrs7大讓我有中文可以玩
這遊戲雖然後面有點小卡關但整體來說非常喜歡
殺人那刷刷的俐落畫面讓我很開心(?
要殺小獅子那段笑死我了超可愛!!!!!
This game is absolutely brilliant. It's Monty Python humor mixed with existential dread and ultimate history nerd energy. Every line of dialogue screams beauty and life, everything in the game has a classy taste to it.
But HOLY HELL, are the puzzles impossible to solve. They're quite literally unsolvable without following any external guidance. To further strengthen my case, even the creator of the game must've knew this, because he made a guide on how to solve the puzzles himself! :D So I highly suggest you to keep that guide open in a side bar for the tricky parts (which is like, %80 of the game). I think the main problem is that the dev highly overestimated the competence of the player, but also added no context to some of the puzzles along with no hints and followthroughs to solve them.
The scripts are brilliantly written. The puzzles are really hard. That's it. Try it, and judge for yourself. I'm sure you'll have an honest laugh at the jokes AND be frustrated when passing through the same road the 50th time at a snail's pace, within the same hour.
Also you get to save Jesus from getting crucified.
En un mot : J'ai passé un très bon moment.
Pros
- Great artstyle and music.
- Good puzzle design some tricky parts but very enaging. You can choose to brute force things with violence if thats your cup of tea.
- Lots of humour throughout.
- Multiple endings.
Cons
- Arguably on the short side.
- Story is basic, its really about the journey.
Overall recommend.
Fun, funny, absolutely not stressful, and very well done. I loved it.
funny
on my first playthrough, i was too murderous and got the bad ending so i looked up a guide and yep, i probably wouldnt have gotten the other endings without the guide because i would still end up killing people.
i rly love the artistic style of the photobashing and i know that ♥♥♥♥ is tedious and difficult to do, especially tweening them or whatever. i love my lil murderous lady, she can do no wrong.
overall, enjoyable game but the puzzles do get confusing if you dont look up a guide
LOOK AT MY BIG KEY!!!!!
10/10 would get fat shamed for trying to enter a talent contest again (iykyk)
C'était drôle
Completed the game in 10 minutes my first playthrough by killing everyone my meaty little hands could kill. Appreciated the true game my 2nd play. If you ever wanted to interact with the self-titled Fleet Foxes album, this is your chance
PISS OFF!!

[h1]Pellegrinaggio tra le tentazioni artistiche[/h1]
Dopo aver giocato [i]Four Last Things[/i], non potevo certo rinunciare al suo seguito. Il primo mi era piaciuto moltissimo, quindi dovevo assolutamente provare anche questo.
La trama si apre in [i]medias res[/i]: la guerra è finita, e una nuova legge proibisce qualsiasi omicidio. Peccato che alla protagonista questa svolta non vada affatto a genio. Così, fraintendendo allegramente le parole del protagonista del primo gioco, accetta una missione che le offre l’unica cosa che desidera davvero: una scusa per uccidere anche solo un'altra persona. È un incipit assurdo, ma va bene così com'è. L'obiettivo diventa quello di far fuori il cattivo di turno “vendicando”, il precedente protagonista. Per arrivare allo scopo, ci sono più strade percorribili e, a seconda delle scelte, la storia cambia — così come il finale.
Le ambientazioni sono, anche qui, meravigliose: un collage di opere d'arte popolato da figure prese da altri quadri e messe insieme in un contesto assurdo. Le situazioni rappresentate oscillano tra il sacro e il grottesco, e il tono generale è un misto di arte e follia, reso ancora più nonsense da descrizioni, dialoghi e commenti assurdi che non riflettono minimamente oggetti e personaggi. La blasfemia più pura è all’ordine del giorno — basti pensare a Ǥϵѕū ritratto come un “mago da strada”.
Come nel primo titolo, ogni area ha la propria melodia accattivante e personalizzata, anche qui suonata da veri musicisti presenti sulla scena.
Il gameplay riprende quello del primo titolo: un punta‑e‑clicca classico, semplice e immediato, con alcuni miglioramenti introdotti che ho apprezzato molto: sono piccoli, ma rendono l'esperienza più fluida e godibile.
Rottura della quarta parete, nonsense spinto e scelte moralmente discutibili rendono questo titolo un vero piccolo capolavoro artistico, degno successore del primo. Nonostante la sua durata di un paio d'ore, [i]Procession to Calvary[/i] regala una quantità sorprendente di momenti divertenti — e, in fondo, un po’ di cultura artistica te la porti a casa comunque. Complimenti agli sviluppatori, perché anche qui si sono superati. È una piccola perla che merita davvero di essere giocata.
Loved it! The humour, the art, everything! I was giggling through out the whole gameplay!
H I L Á R I O !!!!
Definitely high up there in the point and click genre. These games are awesome and can't wait to play the third game in this series. Can strongly recommend. Beautiful visuals.
Un humour décapant !! Se promener dans des peintures à l'huile est une expérience que je recommande !
I played “Death of the Reprobate” before this game, and since I enjoyed it so much, found it very funny, and overall a chill experience, I decided to play this one as well. I also bought “Four Last Things”, which I still need to play.
This game follows the same mechanics and controls, which are easy to remember and make it simple to jump right in. Overall, it’s a game you can really enjoy when you want to relax and have a laugh at the dialogue.
The game is just as good as “Death of the Reprobate”, though it felt slightly shorter — or maybe that’s just how it felt in comparison.
I also love the art style and the way everything is animated!
好玩
well made and fun
好玩的中世纪解谜游戏，有些解法让人笑出来
黑色幽默，很有意思。
Крайне занимательная point-and-click адвенчура, практически каждое событие в которой в то или иной мере отсылает на существующие картины эпохи Ренессанса, дополняя атмосферу подходящей музыкой , абсурдностью и весельем, а также интересными диалогами. Рекомендую
Amusing, unusual, and challenging.
another AMAZING game from this developer! if you like art, you will certainly like this and the tongue in cheek humor makes it that much better of a game/experience. i also strongly enjoy the different animations and ways that the paintings come to life/how you move across them; it's much, much more immersive. (you should definitely play Four Last Things first, if you haven't).
拔剑十分果断，抽象爽游
爱信等，时隔一年半终于让我等到了汉化，哈哈！
在好友推荐下玩的游戏，确实不是我的取向。喜欢中世纪题材的可以试试，又荒唐又真实又抽象，玩到中段真的有被抽象到，怎么会出现——这种东西。虽然大背景下是合理的，但也不该真的出现吧！
玩完整部感觉读了篇野史[strike] 虽然我也不知道正史是什么样的 [/strike]，总共三个结局，一定要积极存档，不然重打一遍感觉还是蛮痛苦的（对我来说
玩到最后只想再说一句，不要再杀人了，真的是条不归路！
The Procession to Calvary – Erfrischend anders, komplett absurd und ein Volltreffer für Freunde britischen Humors.
---Grafik---
☑ Klassische Gemälde als Collage – mutig, schräg, einzigartig
☑ Wer den Stil mag, bekommt etwas wirklich Besonderes
☐ Wer damit nichts anfangen kann, ist nach 5 Minuten raus
---Gameplay---
☑ Klassisches Point-&-Click, angenehm simpel
☑ Rätsel sind logisch, aber nie verbissen
☐ Das Spiel lebt nicht von Schwierigkeit, sondern vom Witz
---Humor---
☑ Trocken, absurd, völlig respektlos
☑ Dialoge und Situationen sind ein Dauergrinsen
☑ Erinnert stark an Monty Python’s Flying Circus
---Audio---
☑ Erzählerstimme perfekt gesetzt
☑ Soundeffekte unterstützen den Wahnsinn
☐ Musik hält sich zurück – der Humor steht im Vordergrund
---Schwierigkeitsgrad---
☑ Entspannt spielbar
☑ Ideal für einen Abend ohne Stress
☐ Scheitern ist oft Teil des Gags
---Fazit---
The Procession to Calvary ist ein Spiel, das man nicht „durchspielt“, sondern genießt.
Erfrischend anders, herrlich albern und voller absurdem Humor.
Wenn man auf diese Art von Grafik steht und britischen Nonsens liebt, ist es ein absoluter Lacher.
8/10 – fühlt sich an wie ein spielbares Monty-Python-Sketchbuch. 🎨🐴
Extrem cooles Adventure voller schwarzem Humor, und dennoch mit hohem künstlerischen und musikalischen Anspruch.
good and funny and good and and
peak
Połączenie moich ulubionych okresów w sztuce - renesansu i baroku, wraz ze utworami z tego okresu, oraz humorem, który jak sam opis gry śmie porównywać z Monty Pythonem, tworzy mieszankę tak wprost cudowną, iż nie napisanie przeze mnie recenzji pozytywnej owego dziełka byłoby zbrodnią najwiętszą i herezją niewybaczalną!
扣一耶稣陪你一起笑
This is a Joe Richardson point and click title. For those unaware, they're all comedy games that are hilarious. They all have Monty Python style humor with plenty of absurdity and ridiculousness in them. The game play is pretty much the same across all of them but I think this and Death of the Reprobate are his bests. They're also his newest. Here's to hoping he still has more up his sleeve because I'm down for another of his games!
荒诞离奇、令人捧腹，血腥暴力而且还颇为文艺（？）的富含巧思的啸游戏
5小时通关4小时在看英文对话，害是太菜了
短短1小时体量，把文艺复兴时期的平民、教会、国王甚至是稣哥都恶搞了个遍
玩之前：我要好好欣赏名画，寓教于乐，在游戏中学习英语对话
玩之后：莎莎莎，chap, PISS OFF!
Particulier, mais rafraichissant.
Long as you know it's a short game and get it on sail. For the most part, had no difficulty with the puzzles

This game was very fun, I loved the puzzles and atmosephere, its beautifully made, 10/10
3/5
Seconda iterazione e tecnicamente seguito dell'avventura punta e clicca satirica creata con quadri rinascimentali. Artisticamente è sempre molto bello così come le musiche, riuscendo sempre a strappare qualche risata.
Rimane purtroppo molto breve durando un paio d'ore e l'ho trovato un po' più facile del precedente.
Consigliato, ma non a prezzo pieno.
This game is hilarious!!!
Great game. I laughed. Too short though
Kleines witziges Spiel für nen Nachmittag
Very fun and humorous. I replayed it when I finished to get all the endings I enjoyed it so much
Historically accurate. 10/10.
Excellent point-and-click adventure where a soldier continues her holy mission to hunt down Heavenly Peter, now in a time of peace, refusing to accept the end of the holy war.
This is the second part of a planned trilogy, following Four Last Things, and it keeps the same surreal and ironic style.
The game is full of absurd humor, sometimes a bit acid when it comes to Catholicism and the Church, so some people might feel offended. It also includes coarse language that reinforces its irreverent tone.
The puzzles are generally well designed, except for one that gives a misleading hint which makes the solution more confusing than helpful. Among them, the funniest puzzle involves a metronome, a roasted man, and snuff tobacco, delivering one of the most unexpected and hilarious moments of the game.
All graphics are made using Renaissance paintings, animated in bizarre ways, and the soundtrack is entirely classical music of that era.
The whole style is very different from anything you’ve seen before, and as I already said in the review of the previous game, strongly reminiscent of Monty Python’s Holy Grail animated interludes.
The game offers three different endings that are easily unlockable, although they require replaying the adventure a couple of times.
If you liked the first game, just like it happened to me, you will definitely enjoy this one, but if you didn’t, this one won’t change your mind either
It includes achievements and also features collectible trading cards.
Monty python tarzı güzel mizahı var
Renaissance art, dark humour and puzzles that make you laugh purely because of their ideas. It won’t click with every player, but if you enjoy weird solutions and comedy that isn’t afraid to go over the top, it’s genuinely one of the most unique adventure experiences around.
Feels like life
Je n'ai pas pu finir le jeu avec le bonne fin à cause du beug du poisson... Il disparat au bout d'un moment, empêchant de finir le jeu sans tuer quelqu'un. Cela reste un bon jeu.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I love how the author used them paintings for the graphic style of the game.
But yeah you can go mas murder mode or solve silly puzzles by brining a skunk into room full of nobles. Really funny in both silly and gruesome kind of ways, recommendation for all the point & click enjoyers out there.
Ein absoluter Geheimtipp. Erstaunlich langer Spielspaß und tolle Referenzen auf alte Meister der Malerei und Gesellschaft.
Se for considerar tão e somente o preço (onze contos de reis) dá pra engolir. Mas é um game absurdamente ridículo, feito com recortes e montagens de imagens existentes. Heresia total, bem no estilo Monty Phyton e desconexo. Muito raramente, dá pra rir de tão medíocre. Quem sobrevive de um teco, que dúvida da existência do tico, vai adorar.
So much shenanigans! Bloody fabulous it is cherrio chaps!!!
[b] 𝖠𝖡𝖲𝖮𝖫𝖴𝖳𝖤 𝖢𝖨𝖭𝖤𝖬𝖠! [/b] ✋😐🤚
I can't stop laughing every time I talk to an NPC! If you get easily entertained and have a broken sense of humor, I totally recommend giving this game a try! The puzzles are lovely, you can finish them with logic or pure violence, your choice!
第二部不爽居然可以直接砍人了，挺好，虽然乱砍会导致结局失败
AMO AMO Y AMO. Lo repito y lo repetiré, me voy a jugar todos los juegos de este estudio pq cuidan todo al máximo detalle.
很猎奇很好玩
Excellent appetiser for a humorous, point n' click adventure. Short, but loved every second of it and especially it's humor, very truthful to its Monty Python origin.
curioso
