Christopher Columbus is an Idiot is a story about Christopher Columbus being an idiot. Basically! In an attempt to flee the country of Spain from his ridiculous debts, he swindles the Queen into granting him three boats to set out to discover the new worlds. Finding and repairing the boats is, of course, up to him. Sure, themes of colonialism and religion are explored, but it all takes the back seat to stripper librarians, beaver uprisings, nude time gypsies, crying dolphins, dandy fops, addle-brained monarchs, warrior princesses, hipster turkeys, pornographic conspiracies, dragon fetishists, telepathic rabbits, and at least a few references to the baffling 1992 adventure/dungeon crawler/space combat simulator game Inca. This is the first part of a planned four part adventure. The second chapter is to take place in the New World (this version includes the first few screens of that), the third chapter takes place in assorted places around the globe, and the fourth takes place with Columbus back in Spain. 

Please note this is a very-very-very prototype version. It was originally created back in 2012 as a Windows executable. However, it should work in SCUMMVM nowadays since it supports Adventure Game Studio. The graphics are all scribbly MS Paint nonsense, which is placeholder artwork until proper art is added. But, it is a fully playable section of a game, which should at least an hour or two.
