Is it just me, or do the various noises that Woodruff sometimes makes sound a little like Wall-E's vocalizations?

I love these types of games.

Is there anywhere I can download this? Cos ya know they're so hard to actually buy now a days.

Other ones I want to try are:
Day of the Tentacles
and the Discworld Games.
You played them? If so are they any good?

You might be able to find Woodruff on eBay or Amazon, but there are several places where you can download torrent files of it (try searching for "woodruff and the schnibble torrent"). You can also try the download links here if there aren't enough people seeding the file.

The Day of the Tentacle is pretty good. I had fun with it for a while but I never really "warmed up" to it like I have with some adventure games.

I've only played the first two Discworld games. The first one is fun but pretty difficult (and can be downloaded from The Underdogs, which sadly seems to be down at the moment), while the second one is a bit more enjoyable but very difficult to run.

Yeah I ended up downloading Woodruff from abadonware-paradise but it's in .bin and .cue files which means I have to burn it onto a disc. Hope it works, don't want to spend £10 on blank media for nothing. I've never had much luck with these things

You're welcome.

By the way, you don't necessarily have to burn a .bin or a .cue file to a CD. If you've got the hard drive space, you can just mount the file using DAEMON Tools and run the game straight from your hard drive.
