Summary

One of the best adventure games ever.

The Good

This game was truly inspiring. Housing cutting edge-graphics that inspired those of Sam and Max Hit the Road and The Curse of Monkey Island, and voice acting that perfectly fits each character, including Richard Sanders (Les Nessman from WKRP in Cincinnati) as Bernard Bernouli, this game reinvented the adventure game, giving interactive control of the three main characters.

The Bad

Doesn't seem to work very well in Windows 95, 98, or 2000. The sound randomly cuts out, and the voices don't work. But on an older computer, it's perfect.

The Bottom Line

A classic game that shows what all good adventure games should be like.
