One of my favourites
Played this as a kid. Was not able to progress much in the game then. Used to try every possible click combinations and get lucky very few times.Now reliving the good times and was able to complete the game successfully. Well thought through and fun one.

Fun first main island, terrible second
This was pretty solid through the first major island area. Nothing too special, but decent story, reasonable puzzles, okay voice acting, mildly amusing writing. The music is awful and loud and constant, but things got much more tolerable when I just shut the music off, although since there are very few sound effects besides voices, the game gets oddly silent without music. Then you get to the second major area, Sloth Island, which is just an awful design mistake. The whole map is a deliberately confusing maze, so just getting around and finding your way to rooms with something in them you can do is a serious annoyance. It even has an actual maze towards the end, which has never not been terrible in the whole history of adventure games. The puzzles in this part are ridiculous, completely nonsensical from start to finish. The game's inventory is badly done, and it gets worse and worse the further you get in the game, so that's also a hassle in this second part. Nothing you pick up ever gets dropped, even when it has no more use, and you can only view four items at a time on the screen, so you constantly have to scroll through an increasing pile of junk to try to find the item you need. If you want to play this game, I suggest not bothering to try figuring out Sloth Island. Go step by step from a walkthrough from that point until the end of the game, as I eventually did just to get through the story. Once you get to Sloth Island, you've exhausted the good gameplay parts of this.

It's ok for the time.
Not as good as other classics from the time. But still enjoyable.

A great classic
A great classic of graphical adventures of the 90s. Not much to say, graphics, story, humor, all are at highest levels of this kind of game. Sounds and music are not as high quality as the rest because of hardware limits of 90s PCs but always funny and lore immersing. Some part of the story, very few, are not so clear and objects sometimes have to be used randomly in various locations to find the way to make the story proceed and some translation (i play italian version) are not very clear making the solution of some puzzles very hard. Despite those little craps, I think T.F.o.T.A.Q) is a masterpiece everyone should play once in his life.
