Fun game, even if I didn't find it quite as great as other people have done .

Coming from Maniac Mansion an Zak on my ol' C64, I hated the interface at first. I hated, hated, hated it (mainly because it took a while to get used to it, at least for me). Honest!. Then I got used to that icon-thingie and kicked some rabbit's butt.

Nice game. Outrageously fun, and a well-designed gameplay.

It's been quite a while for myself as well, but it's soon to be up next on my re-play list.

That outfit was just SO convincing.

Nice dialogue. Downright bizarre locations. I found a few of the puzzles a bit out there but a good experience overall.

I missed this (and many other) lucasarts game when it was released. Thanks to some help from ScummVM I managed to play through them awhile back. It may not be the most difficult games (although I did get stumped once or twice!) but its one of the most enjoyable....if just for the sarcastic wit alone.

That's one of my favourite parts of the game. Especially after I finally got the sound to work (when I first played it, I assumed there were no voices at all, because the other games like Monkey Island didn't have voices either. Ah, but I was young and naïve.)

My version didn't have any voices (it was the floppy version, and I think there were like 8 floppies).
