Left handed characters in adventure games
 
While i was playing "Murder in the Abbey",i noticed something.A character of the game was left handed.Then it striked me!
I can't think of a game where a character,not necessarily the hero/ine,is left handed.
Do you recall any games??
(I'm sorry if my english is kind of bad. :D )

One of the Edison twins in DoTT definitely was.

Because of the alternate reality?If i remember right..

In a lot of older games they just flip the sprites depending on which way they're pointing, so a character would be left-handed when facing right, and right-handed when facing left (or vice versa). Ambidextrous, I suppose.

Trilby (the protagonist of Yahtzee's 5 Days a Stranger and Trilby's Notes) is left-handed.

You know, this is actually a very interesting question. I never really noticed whether a character was left or right handed. It never crossed my mind.

I am left handed and that question crossed my mind many times.

;) Well one of the siamese twins in Faust Seven games of the soul must have been left handed since they were conjoined at the shoulder leaving them with one arm each.

I guess left handed characters can be found in newer games.In new games,the camera moves and you can see the character from different angles.
