Press release:
Frankfurt, Germany, 24.08.2017 – Victorian developer Rumpus Animation and Publisher Deck13 are proud to announce the release of Bertram Fiddle – A Bleaker Predicklement. Because it’s out. Last year Rumpus Animation released their first game – The Adventures of Bertram Fiddle – A Dreadly Business. A classic point and click romp around Victorian London which soon became a cult classic. Albeit a very small, secretive cult that hardly anyone has heard of. To spread this cult, the second Episode just hit Steam. Finally. After a successful Kickstarter. And after building up a strong community.

After several delays, most times caused by Brexits and Alcohol, A Bleaker Predicklement is now available. The second installment in the series is a far more ambitious project compared to the first game and is almost quadruple the size. That means: More puns, more weirdness, more everything. More Bertram!

Bertram Fiddle: A Bleaker Predicklement is now available on Steam for 14.99$ and comes around with a 20% Launch Discount.

An Un-Demo is also available:
