Summary

Good

The Good

There are loads of ways to finish the game with whatever characters with funny consequences and a massive mansion to explore packed with more items than a warehouse, introduced SCUMM

The Bad

Some of the things on the SCUMM thing are ridiculous such as 'What Is' and there are 10 verbs that could be sorted out by just use such as 'Open' 'Close' 'Turn On' 'Turn Off'. One mistake and you're doomed to eternity in a mansion owned by a mad scientist and his deranged family FOREVER.

The Bottom Line

Fun to blow up the house.
