A 2017 InteractiveFiction game by Buster Hudson.
You have recently been procured by the knight Ser Leonhart and his faithful squire Tuck. Believing you capable of sniffing out wizards, they have brought you to the keep of the evil shapeshifting wizard Queklain, with the goal of defeating him and rescuing the kidnapped Princess Joy.
Unfortunately, you are no wizard sniffer, merely an ordinary pig.
You can play the game [[http://iplayif.com/?story=http%3A%2F%2Fifarchive.org%2Fif-archive%2Fgames%2Fcompetition2017%2FThe%2520Wizard%2520Sniffer%2FThe_Wizard_Sniffer.gblorb here.]]

* {{Asexuality}}: [[spoiler:Implied to be the case for Tuck, and WordOfGod says he was written as asexual.]]

* KnightsAndKnaves: The fleas that serve as the game's hint system give their hints in this form, with one flea telling the truth and the other one lying.
* LampshadeWearing: [[spoiler:One of the heroes hides himself poorly by wearing a lampshade on his head.]]
