I think i´ve just found the coolest point-and-click adventure iOS game of the year. I´m talking about Rumpus Animation´s 2D Victorian London inspired adventure game “Bertram Fiddle: Episode 1: A Dreadly Business”.

A game that made me think about the good Ol´ Lucas Art adventure games from the 80´s and 90´s (with a touch of Sherlock Holmes on top of that). And if you like the sound of that, then i´ve got some really good news for you.

Episode 1 (“A Dreadly Business”) of Bertram Fiddle has just been released on the App store. So the game is all yours for 3 pounds =)
