Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist

[b]“I like work: it fascinates me. I can sit and look at it for hours.” ― Jerome K. Jerome[/b] Coming from the designer behind [i]The Stanley Parable[/i] and a young developer team, this free little game with a needlessly long name carries a similar pattern of blatant absurdity. Due to the ridiculous amount of probable effort that I'd have to put while writing the whole completion of the title each time, I'll be referring to the game simply as [i]Dr.Langeskov[/i] for the remainder of this review. Now that is settled, let me try doing this properly. Following the example of [i]The Stanley Parable[/i], it is somewhat hard to write a review to a game that would be better played without knowing anything about it. So, if you'd like to enjoy the full experience, I'd highly recommend to stop reading and give it a try to see it for yourself. Since it already is a freeware, you won't have anything to lose rather than 15 minutes of your time. Still here? Well then. You've asked for it. ...

I, what, hello...? Oh, so this is... this is... this is very awkward. Uhm.... yes, the review you wanted to read, well, someone else is reading it right now. I'm terribly sorry, this is very awkward. You can't read it, you can't, you can't. Just a moment. Hello? Can someone tell me how far the other one is? What? Slow reader... oh, great. Terribly sorry, yes, just a moment, I'm so sorry. This is a bit... embarassing. The review is really, really good. Well written, yes, to the point. But, this is not a problem. You can give me a hand maybe? While the other player reads? Yes, great. Can you upvote this comment? It's really easy and we're... we're short on employees right now, very unfortunate. Just hit the "Yes"-Button, right where it says "was this review helpful?". It's very easy, just click with your mouse. You'll help us a lot. Don't hit "No", it's the "Yes" button. So sorry for the inconvenience. The other player is almost done reading. Just a few more minutes. Yes, hello? Wh...

Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist is a short free game. It takes approximately 15 minutes to finish it. This game is a nice unique experience and pretty humorous. During your way through the game you will be led by a voice, like in Stanley Parable. The voice acting is really enjoyable. If you have played The Stanley Parable and enjoyed the humour of it you should definitely try Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist.

One of the best heist games I've ever played! The setting of the beautiful mansion and the lighting was amazing. The ambiance, was amazing too, with the creepy voices in the elevator setting the mood quite nicely! Truly an experience to be remembered! 10/10!

I'm not quite sure what to think of this. Yes, I wanted more Stanley Parable, and that's what I got. ...but on the other hand, did I really WANT more Stanley Parable? Did I really want another game about extreme defiance just to explore what would happen if I annoyed the narrator enough? ...because when you strip that mechanic down to the bare bones, then there's not much more that you can do with it, than what was already done with the Stanley Parable. You can introduce lots of pixel hunting, I guess, and have the player hunt coins and pretzels and achievements, but... ...why? Is that really fulfilling? I guess there's only one way to find out: Play Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger, and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist. You'll probably regret it.

Amazing game. I played through it several times. Well worth the time.

Brilliant. Especially Simon Amstell's nearly-manic voice acting. Definitely worth 15 minutes of your time. I would totally pay for a series of shorts this fun and funny.

Are you busy right now? I don't care. Sit down, download this game, put your headphones on and play it from start to finish. It will cost you 0 dollars and about 20 minutes, and it is totally worth your time. Why are you still here? Go on! Play it! What do you have to lose?

If you enjoy tormenting video game narrators, this one's a must. Excellent value for money.

A pleasant game on 30 minutes by author The Stanley Parable. Lovely voice over and a lot of interactive parts.
