Astrologaster is a comedy adventure set in Elizabethan London and based on the real life of Simon Forman, a self-styled doctor who treated people by reading the stars. Patients arrive with all kinds of complaints, and you choose the astrological advice he gives them. Their later letters show how his guidance worked out, while Forman tries to gain recognition from the medical establishment of his day.
The game is story-driven and plays out mostly through reading and choices, with sung musical interludes adding to the humor. It is a single-player experience with no time pressure, well suited to players who like witty writing, historical oddities and short narrative games.
