Gobliiins

Gobliiins is a humorous point-and-click puzzle adventure where players control a group of quirky goblins, each with unique abilities, as they attempt to complete a series of strange and often absurd tasks. The gameplay is entirely puzzle-based, requiring experimentation, timing, and the combined use of each character’s skills to solve increasingly complex and logic-defying situations. Progress depends on observation, trial-and-error, and creative thinking rather than traditional action.

Atari ST

Released in 1992 by Coktel Vision, the Atari ST version is a faithful conversion of the original Amiga release, preserving its core puzzle design and humorous tone. The visuals remain colorful and detailed, although with slightly reduced richness in palette and some minor simplification of animation compared to the Amiga version. The distinctive hand-drawn style is still clearly visible, maintaining the expressive character of the goblins and their strange environments. Gameplay is unchanged, focusing entirely on solving interconnected puzzles by coordinating the unique abilities of each goblin. The point-and-click interface is straightforward, allowing players to experiment with different interactions, though solutions often require careful observation and unconventional thinking. Sound is modest but effective, with light music and humorous effects supporting the whimsical atmosphere. Overall, it delivers a solid and faithful adaptation that retains the charm and creativity of the original on Atari ST hardware.
