This incredibly budget priced game is easily the best point and click I've played. It's chock full of LucasArts style humour (early Lucas Arts style), yet the puzzles generally make a little sense. You absoltely MUST give it a try.

No, I mustn't. :x

 

Sorry, I meant apart from Volo, since it may lift his spirits and lead to some sort of replosion.

BTW I own this game (haven't played) but I've been less than enthralled by some of the highly-rated games (including adventure) I've purchased on Steam so far. Examples: Goo, Machinarium.

 

I purchased Machinarium and Ben There, Dan That thinking "Oh, The Longest Journey was an adventure, adventure games must be awesome"...

I tried it a while back with the "Time Gentlemen" $2.50 pack. It was damn funny, but I'm terrible at finishing adventure games.

 

I very much appreciated the opening puzzle.

Oh Jimmy, you were so funny.

Don't let me down.

Zero hour, Snowman thinks. Time to go.

True. It's very hard to go wrong for two quid.

 

One other thing I like is that the authors have written a spoiler free hints guide. Which means when you inevitably get stuck you don't have to cheat. In both my instances it was because I simply didn't realise a specific action was possible in the game. :thumbsup:

Do you guys really like Magnum PI as much as I do over there?

 

How could we not? Although I for one don't know.

 

EDIT: OK, that didn't make and goddamn sense. I'll try again.

 

I don't know, because I never watched it. But a lot of people seem to. I only liked his shirts.

Cheesy series but one thing captivated me and had me green with envy back tan. Normal people could fly with helicopters too. Too bad it still costs an arm and a leg and another leg for a licence here.

IG. We kick ass and not even take names.

OK. You lost me there, buddy. Expensive? The company lets you download it and pay whatever you like.
