Gerald the Blind Butler

Gerald the Blind Butler is a puzzle game where you ring a bell to summon the butler. The sound of the bell echoes around the walls and boxes lying around and may lead Gerald in different directions. Use this to your advantage to direct him exactly where you want him to go (onto a target marked with an X  for the purposes of this game).

How to play:

  • Walk into the bell to ring it. You will see a visual representation of how the sound travels.
  • If Gerald hears the bell, he will walk in the direction he heard it from.
  • Get him to stand on the X target to win the level.
  • Some of the levels have boxes. Walk into these to push them around. This will affect how the sound travels.
  • Press R to restart the level, or Z to undo.

pretty original game! Reminds me of tower-defence game enemy route manipulation :) I feel it got a bit fiddly on, but had fun 👍

good game was not hard but enjoyable

While I appreciate the user-friendly option of just starting the level over when I accidentally cause Gerald to fall down a hole (that may or may not also be a toilet), I really think that the game ought to admonish me on Gerald's behalf.

Otherwise: 10/10 (would happily provide Gerald gainful employment)

Good work, love this !
