I love it! That is a very elegant servant.
If you want to talk in detail with spoilers, there’s a thread for that here called “Tally Ho Spoilers Discussion.”
And thank you so much for your supportive words. I’m just sitting down this morning to work on chapter two of Cakes and Ale and your post is going to fuel me with energy and good thoughts!
Can you tell us anything about the new game?
I can say this: Tally Ho is a game about balancing your own desires against the desires of those around you, and this game will be much the same. Whereas in Tally Ho, you are beholden really only to your employer, in this game you are beholden to your servant, your friends, and the club you become a member of.
I discover what my games are about as I write them, but I think I’ve discovered this so far: this game is going to be about finding and then wanting to preserve a place that completely accepts you and loves you for the person you are.
I hate Figs.
…that is all.
He’s not as bad as Fink-Nottle.
I love Figs and Fink-Nottle 
(The latter being a Wodehouse character.)
I’ve only seen the Jeeves and Wooster TV series but Fink-Nottle had the most odious combination of weakness and stubborness there; he might be more sympathetic in the books. Apart from Chuffy and Pinker quite a lot of Bertie’s friends were nothing but trouble.
I’m not sure who that is.
…but do I even wanna know if he’s worse than Figs?
Wow… could there be anyone worse than Figs ??
I really didn’t get the reason people hate Figs. Really, he is a gentle weirdo and seems to really love Mopsie. I felt a little bit sorry for him at some points.
I don’t mind Figs at all, he seems too dizzy to even realise what trouble he’s causing, and being devoted to one woman is a plus. Fink-Nottle was A LIBERTINE! who got entangled with various women, and didn’t seem to realise or care about Bertie’s consequent woes. Jeeves & Wooster and Tally Ho are so clearly playing for laughs I can’t even really hate Spode, the Oswald Mosley expy.
I know! Figs tries so hard… it’s not his fault he’s not very talented at anything… 
I’ll admit that even I started liking Figs the more I played. He’s such a nice guy who
just wants to have a fun life with Mopsie. He also just happens to be really clumsy and bad with people and have a weird idea of art. I just thought of a sweet headcanon where Figs finally gets recognition for his work when he’s an old man.
Maybe the fact that Tally Ho is a comedy makes it impossible for me to dislike any character forever. I even like Inspector Ambrose’s over the top analyses.
He’s obnoxious, he has dunning kruger syndrome, he purposely gets in the way of MC so that they’ll help him with Mopsie and frequently gets MC in trouble.
Is he a bad person? No. Is he an annoying pest? You bet.
To be honest every character in game could be portrayed this way, except the syndrome perhaps. They all create troubles for MC.
At least Figs didn’t dump us, like Mopsie with the keys after robbery.
I know I’m probably late to the discussion here, but I just wanted to come on and share my love of ‘Tally Ho’. I got hold of it a few months back, and absolutely loved it. It has to be one of my favorite Choice of Games I’ve played to date. I’ve sunk in far too many hours trying to woo all there was to be wooed, and snoop through all there was to be snooped and I’m still missing several achievements, (someday those peafowl will choose me)!
I really enjoy it, especially how it seems there were so many layers, and secrets I never even came close to uncovering on my first playthrough (or second, or third even). I also really liked how it gave me the option to step into the shoes of a lot of different characters – my first was the very prim and proper Dorine Betteredge, who no one would suspect was a former lion tamer.
I loved all the characters, but especially Rory, and Haze’s interactions are also among my favorite. All of the characters were absolutely charming, and I loved them all. The writing was snappy and fun, and I found myself unintentionally reading out loud and gesturing wildly - my poor dogs were pretty confused.
So just wanted to say, I love the game, and I’m looking forward to more. I read that a sort of sequel is in progress, which I’m really excited for! I guess I’m going to have to try and get those last few achievements done before it comes. The whole game also helped to kick my writing muse into gear a little bit, and start writing some fun little stories – I’d forgotten just how much I enjoyed reading and writing about fun little misadventures.
Overall one of my favorite games recently!
Hi! So I just started playing this and I’m kinda confused at the gender selection part?!
"
What has you confused exactly?
You may play a female servant (“lady’s maid”) to a female Rory, a male servant (“valet”) to a male Rory, a nonbinary servant to a female Rory, or a nonbinary servant to a male Rory.
I hope that clears up any confusion, and I hope you love the game!
This was the game that got me hooked for good on CoG and HG. 10/10 would recommend.
