I can not vote for this game enough. This is such a strange pointy clicky adventure story. I have played this so many times and still everytime it reminds me how weird this game was. I loved it as a kid and would love to be able to play it again and again.

A great, absurdist adventure game with interesting puzzles, entertaining voice performances and sound, and charmingly weird cartoon pixel art. Absolutely deserves to be enjoyed by present audiences.
This Game is a great childhood game of mine ! My father and myself would play it all night and all over the weekend ! For years we have been searching for it, please bring it to gog :)
Woodruff was one of my first PC games and I played it over and over again. I love the humor of the game and the puzzles that think outside the box. Please bring it to GOG-I'd love to play it again!

The Gobliiins series was great, and Woodruff was a phenomenal successor to it, so I would love to be able to get it and play it on GOG, like a normal human being.

Fable: The Lost Chapters
Fable: The Lost ChaptersFable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Robosoft Technologies and published by Feral Interactive on 31 March 2008. The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable, as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons, alignment based spells, items, armour, towns, buildings, and expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance and are included in certain main and side quests. Other character-based augmentations include the voice of the antagonist, Jack of Blades, sounding deeper, harsher and more demonic, and the ability to uncover (and resolve) the murder mystery of Lady Grey's sister. The updated edition of the game also applied fixes for certain glitches, such as the "dig glitch," in which the protagonist would move backward each time he used the shovel, pushing him through solid objects and sometimes trapping him.
