Westerlies

Alas, I fear that the mercurial mystery will more likely become my strange grave. So says the protagonist of Westerlies, a challenging and unusual graphical adventure game. Your task is to collect five mysterious pearls hidden in different time zones on an enigmatic island. You will match wits with Polyphemus the Cyclops, Titania the Fairy Princess, King Henry IV, Frankensteins Monster, Merlin the Magician, Flint the Dragon, an angry goat. There are twelve ways you can interact with each object (take, touch, smell, taste, talk, give, pet, hit, open, read, combine, and map).

Collect the pearls from dawn to dusk. A tree will reward you if you address it properly. A rod will bring a sovereign to the throne. Be swept away by the wily winds of Westerlies, and you will lose track of time in a timeless world. Version 2 includes a cheat mode, a hint file, and a more challenging mode of play.
