Dominique Pamplemousse in “It’s All Over Once The Fat Lady Sings!” is a unique and offbeat stop motion animated detective adventure game about gender and the economy. Also, all the characters frequently burst into song.

A very simple, short, fun point & click adventure. non-rhythm musical games are very rare to come by!
Lately, I’ve felt a growing appreciation for art and self expression that doesn’t really aim for having much appeal to anyone. Dominique Pamplemousse is certainly that, a claymation musical point n click that’s about as uncompromising as it gets.
Everything about the presentation is rough. The characters and environments vary from kinda dumb to unsettling, and the singing (while cleverly integrated as part of natural dialogue) is super offkey and hard on the ears. It can be hard to sit through, but when Dominique is just trying to live their life and everyone else just wants to put them in the preconceived box of the gender binary, it really does hit home in a kinda unique way.
I didn’t enjoy this game, but I certainly won’t forget it.
