Wonderful graphics but poor interface, bugs, crashes and generall laziness ruin it. Too many objects just get a standard 'not interesting' response. There are things which look like interesting things which are unclickable a lot of the time. The location names only occasionally flash up on the map. The jokes were hit and miss (for me.) There are obvious things to try like buying fast food to shut up the kid which are not even presented as options. It's a waste of good graphics.
It looks good and interesting, but the gameplay is ruined by the poor interface.
I just didn't get the puzzles, or some of them. Pixel hunting always annoys me. The game also has some errors.
A good idea, though. The characters were nice.
The game was fun, although the animation speed is hyper when played on Linux with AGS 2.7, even at the slowest setting.
Players who like lots of references to other games will love this game. Also, you won't regret playing Casablanca... by the same author before this game, although they have nothing to do with each other. You'll see why, if you play it.
bugs: *semi spoilers*
In a few puzzles you need to "use" when you want to "get" an item out of an object.
At some point you'll be told to give somebody two things. After giving this guy the second item you're told you've only accomplished half of the task, although you can see both items on display; moreover, if you click on one of them, the game crashes. I almost abandon the game at this point thinking it was a fatal bug, but the puzzle counts as solved and you can proceed.
Very pleasant game. Lots of challenges. Many places to go and good graphics. Also what I liked was that you could pick up inventory at different times without upsetting the game.
The Blues Brothers poster should either be removed or unbugged.
Very good work. Thank you.
