Sołtys is a comedy point-and-click adventure made in 1995 by the Polish studio LK Avalon. You are the sołtys, the head of the village of Wąchock, and your daughter is about to be married. Leon, the groom, is scared of his future and runs away from the wedding, and it is your job to bring the poor man back.
The game is full of village humour, odd neighbours and puzzles that use whatever you find in the yards and fields around Wąchock. LK Avalon released it as freeware with an English translation, and ScummVM runs it here in your browser.
