    Demetrios is a solid point and click title from Cowcat. It is point and click and dialogue-driven, even to a fault at some points, but the difficulty will be enough to offer up a challenge to those who love the genre. Demetrios certainly isn’t perfect, much like its main character, but it is intriguing enough to warrant a go.

    Some may find Demetrios‘s outlook offputting, but if you like your humour on the snarky side you’ll find a surprisingly substantial adventure here.

    If you like classic point & click adventure games, then Demetrios is worth a play.

    Overally it’s a decent effort. It’s not overly expensive so it won’t break the bank and it’s a nice walk down memory lane for those of us who grew up on Adventure games (but with mouse clicking instead of Parser commands.

    Demetrios – The BIG Cynical Adventure is a fairly underwhelming and disappointing experience.

    If it sounds like this is all being to harsh on The BIG Cynical Adventure, it’s only because the game makes it too easy to be cynical right back at it. The one-man development efforts of Cowcat are to admired, but they sadly can’t save the end product from being purely mediocre.

If you like original humor and don't mind some childish jokes, then you're in for a treat. It's very long and attractive with nice cartoon art. The puzzles are logical and varied, the screens have a lot of things to click on and it has a nice story. I really enjoyed the the gameovers and cookies collecting!
    I recommend it!    … Full Review »

Sin embargo, pese a ser el primer título de la compañía, Cowcat Games nos ha regalado un título lleno de humor, con una historia absurda y unos personajes rocambolescos, todo ello basándose en una de las mejores sagas de todos los tiempos como es Broken Sword.… Full Review »
