Minoto, that glorious purveyor of point-and-click puzzle oddities, graces us with 2011 A Father's Travel, which contains most everything you'd expect to find in a Minoto game. That is to say, comb-overs, aliens, abstract puzzle solving, the sun making faces, surreal worlds, and above all... cuteness. This time you actually start out with a bunch of items you can already use to solve puzzles, though you'll gather more as you go, and figuring out to use everything is just as big a challenge as figuring out what's going on. Just remember to try everything, no matter how strange it seems, and examine items up close when you get stuck. Odd? You bet. But if you're a Minoto fan, you probably wouldn't have it any other way.

YES!!! I've been waiting for this!
I think I get more excited about Minoto games than about gotmail's back in the day.
Jegus. Aahahahaha. WHAT.
Funny finish! XD
walkthrough anyone?
I woke up in a bad mood, but this totally cheered me right up.
Who doesn't love a fun Minoto game? Love the homage to 2001 with the Monolith, but the ending was as confusing as usual.
Here you go, Paul :)

When you read the information for the rope:
A child may also be used.
o.o.
That was weird.. you know, like usual.
The ending was funny! :)
Oooh, two new Minoto games~!
Excellent! New Minoto. :)
Haha, brilliant ending!
Either I've been playing Minoto games for too long, or this isn't odd enough :/
Maybe Minoto and Detarou need to work together to make a game or twenty.
Fairly easy and adorable point-and-click, except the first time I got stuck because
I didn't find the coin, so I couldn't pull the lever
Positively delightful, and I loved the ending.
That's the most insane thing I've seen all day. And I've been reading blogs.
Superb. Particularly superb. Thank you for this.
