    I love that game. Played it multiple times. I should again. It’s been a while.

    I never liked the game: they broke the classical point-and-click concept with time-dependent things. Do something and then quickly do something else before something third happens. Pffft. But it was the last nice-looking(with some obvious shitty prerenders but retouched to look ok) Lukas Arts game – later we got that horrendous 3d attempt for monkey Island 4 and Grim Fandango. Sad times…

      I enjoyed playing it back in the day even if it took several tries to understand what the game wanted you to do, the parts that gave me the most gripe was finding out how to jump the canyon and how to fight the Cavefish.

      I was fond of adventure games just not good at them because at that age my English was not good enough, but here comes Full Throttle and Day of The Tentacle that are funny and i can play through to the end.
