Why have you failed to mention “Dobson and Blogett’s: Celebrity Grott”, the game of which one reviewer exclaimed “Never in the history of video gaming, has one title so richly captured the full breadth and vigor of Dobsian thought”, indeed this is the only game that puts the player through trials and predicaments inspired by actual incidents in the great pamphleteer’s life.

The game is set in an ice-girt seaside resort, where Dobson having recently arrived in town seeks to make his fortune writing and declaiming a series of inspiring pamphlets, but from where does this inspiration come? Naturally, from a series of chilling, yet comedic mis-advetures which begin through which the player must guide the Dobsonian avatar.

Naturally, many of these ‘adventures’ have been embellished for dramatic effect; For example the sequence in which Dobson must resuce his budgerigar, impounded by Trebizondo cultists includes ludicrously far-fetched dialogue concerning an owl taxonomy library.

Neither Ulm nor Winnipeg possessed such a building, and at the time Trbizondo cultists professed no interest at all in any form of bird-life.

These minor factual discrepancies aside, the true Dobsonian spirit shines through the game – and will serve as an adequate introduction to the Pamphleteer’s life.

But what of Blodgett? Entirely absent from the game – he is the great unseen, the “muguffin” if you will around which the plot inexplicably revolves, the reason Dobson has exiled himself, the reason that Dobson must collect gas-canisters and finally the unseen cause of his redemption.

In short, you would be bonkers to miss this game, a shining example of Dobson’s relevance to this modern era and a vidication of all that Dobson stood for.
