About Buřtík

In this platform game, the player controls a character who has escaped from incarceration after being wrongly convicted. The visual style is cartoonish, and the narrative adopts a humorous tone rooted in Eastern European themes.

The protagonist's journey extends from a location near a Czech prison to various global and even extraterrestrial settings. Throughout this adventure, numerous characters, including market vendors, become hostile towards him. Key events involve visiting sites like Chernobyl and causing the destruction of the Gabčíkovo dam.

His travels also include confrontations with figures such as Saddam Hussein and the Dalai Lama. The scope of the game eventually broadens to include space travel, involving historical figures like Gagarin and the dog Laika.
