Thanks for doing this. I love cartoon adventures so getting a chance to finally see (spoiler?) Clandestiny was great.

Just a bit of criticism - since this is a walkthrough for a puzzle heavy game, maybe put an annotation for how each puzzle works? Most are obvious, but a few took me a while to understand (like the ship puzzle).

As for the game, I have to say it looks like a mixed bag. Combining cartoon characters with a dark, cgi casle environment doesn't really work.
Same with the story; sometimes it's dark and even sad (like the kid ghosts and the cook) but alot of the of the time it tries to be funny. The characters' reactions to the ghosts correspond to this - sometimes they are afraid of them, and sometimes they laugh at them.
Also, the main characters are annoying. Why would I want to help those two? Because of the uneven writing, you don't see them evolve so you can't really relate to them.
Also - Heavy Scottish accents and no subtitles? What were they thinking?

So, do you have plans for more walkthroughs?
