What players say

Players praise this as a classic-style point-and-click adventure with a funny, self-aware story and puzzles that are challenging but never unfair. The 4-hour length and $10 price are often called good value, and the game avoids old pitfalls like unwinnable states while keeping Sierra-style deaths.
