]]> 71665 The Inscrutable Doctor Baer and the Case of the…Video Game?? https://jdrozd.com/the-inscrutable-doctor-baer-and-the-case-of-the-video-game/ Fri, 29 May 2026 12:00:00 +0000 https://jdrozd.com/?p=71697 Read More]]> I have an exciting announcement:

I’ve teamed up with my old friend Rob Stenzinger, creator of the video games Word Turtle Island and Lexilotl (and more), to make an honest-and-for-true video game where you’ll be able to play Doctor Baer and the Wisps as they navigate the spooky world you’ve read about in The Case of the Two-Faced Statue and The Case of the Mummy Express. I’m creating the art and story for the project and Rob is developing the play mechanics and game design. In other words, it’s a new Doctor Baer adventure in which you’ll get to be the inscrutable cursed object healer!

I’ll post updates here as we work on the project, but you can also follow Rob on Instagram for in-progress videos as we put the project together!

Barbarian cats and horses wrestling! Trickier to draw than it sounds. But I could draw those two all day long. If you agree, get a friend to buy a copy of The Inscrutable Doctor Baer and the Case of the Two-Faced Statue so I eventually can draw these two all day long!

From Sea Language Comes Ashore, by Joanna C. Colcord:
Barney's brig, like. The complete phrase is "like Barney's brig, both main tacks over the fore-yard." It is used alongshore to express the extreme of disorder, something so bad as to be ridiculous.

So Cap'n Lao ain't wrong!

The Doctor himself has said that they’re headed for the Cat Grasslands, but where does their journey begin? The Pierogi Mountains. This is why Ship’s Cook Maggie expressed excitement about the herbs that grow in this area–they’re perfect for making Bully Beef Pierogi!

Here’s a more detailed view, complete with Indiana Jones red travel lines.

Let’s watch the backgrounds as the story concludes and see if you can find where they are on the map!

An update so big it's standing in for this week and next! A two-page spread wherein the action and stakes are turned up a bit.

Special thanks to color assistant Wyvern Barker. This fella worked very hard on this spread, and I appreciate it!

Let me take this moment to remind you that you can get your own Transit Doll pendant over on my Etsy store. These hand-made porcelain objects are each a one-of-a-kind artifact from the world of Doctor Baer, and each one comes packed with a lore sheet:
