He ain't Stormageddon, Dark Lord of All, but we love him just the same. He's Bustermcthundersticks, and he so happens to be a point-and-click puzzle game by Ninjadoodle, where the aim is to track down 33 tiny ninjas hiding throughout a house filled with tricks and puzzles. To play, just point, click, and drag to interact and keep your eyes open for clues that will tell you how to use the devices in each room.
Bustermcthundersticks is a weird name for an even weirder game, but it makes for a great snack-sized piece of puzzling that won't weigh you down... though you will have to contend with getting that soundtrack stuck in your head. While a few of the ninjas are simple reflex grabs, tracking down the others requires both an eye for detail and deciphering contextual clues that at first glance either don't make much sense or seem like simple decoration. Some of the puzzles are definitely more obscure than others, so don't be afraid to experiment or bang on walls if you need to. Short, stylish and sweet makes for a great casual gaming trifecta, and Bustermcthundersticks is another welcome little gem from Ninjadoodle to brighten your day. Now if you excuse me, I have to go inform my husband about his new nickname.
Done...no help! Wahoo!
me too! loved it!
Good puzzles not too easy but finished without help. 5/5
ninja doodle rocks! great game! got stuck at first but once I got the first couple puzzles everything else stated to fall in line!
Feel like an idiot for taking as long to figure out the final puzzle as it did. Still, didn't need help and not too easy!
Why video walkthrough for a puzzle game? WHY? it's the worst possible medium for a puzzle walkthrough.
Made it! No walkthrough! I also was completely stuck until I got the first couple of puzzles, but then it flowed pretty well.
I didn't understand that top middle room puzzle at all, had to use walkthrough for it and still didn't get it. If anyone reads this please someone explain!
@Fanjita if I recall correctly that is the room with the 4 arrows and they take their clue from
The TV NEWS, being North East West South
Oh wow, thanks a lot. Can't believe I missed that!
Aurgh! I'm only missing one ninja, but I swear I've solved every puzzle and...
...knocked on all the right places in the wall from the basement puzzle.
I don't see anymore lil ninjas playing peekaboo from the sides, either. Dagummit.
Never mind, I found it.
I'd tried clicking the roman numeral pictures, but I didn't think to rotate them. Oops :P
