Nord And Bert Couldn't Make Head Or Tail Of It

Less of a game and more of a wordplay puzzlefest, Nord & Bert brings a very unique style to the PC. The game is split up into several different areas, where you must toy with homonyms, spoonerisms, and clichés to correct the oddities throughout town.

The game designers smartly realized that most gamers would not be intimately familiar with every phrase, idiom, and slang the game is riddled with; thus an in-game hint system is a welcome sight. Despite the occasional frustration that ignorance creates while playing, the game can be funny and very satisfying when you do advance on your own intellect. Nord & Bert is a must-play for those who love word puzzles. Hardcore adventurers may want to look elsewhere.
