Only mediocre

I know some people are playing this classic through nostalgic lenses. And, for what it is, its a great throwback to the golden age of lucasarts-type adventure/point n click games. But after only about an hour in, you start to realize that the game is VERY padded with red herrings, illogical solutions to puzzles and having to backtrack about a bazillion times to different areas. PROS: - Great voice acting (for the genre) - Colorful graphics - Good sense of humor CONS: - padding, and lots of it. - illogical and, mostly, frustrating puzzles give no sense of satisfaction when solved - buggy UI (at least for me it felt like the 'walmart' version of a UI that could break at any minute lol CONCLUSION: If your looking for a game on par with lucasarts or sierra, this isn't one of them. It's free, so no real waste here other than time, but there are FAR better, less puzzling, voice acted adventure games out there in retroland.

Solid representative of the genre

I never heard of this game back in the 1990s when it came out, and it's always a surprise to me to see how many companies besides Sierra and LucasArts made adventure games of this type back then. Essentially, this is a poor man's Indiana Jones, but despite that, it's not bad at all. I haven't finished it yet, but I've put in a couple hours and am enjoying it so far. The inventory puzzles have so far been very sensible, with no insane video game logic on offer. The graphics are very typical of the times, and in fact the game looks a lot like the LucasArts games being released then. My only complaint is with the voices. The guy who does Joe King, the main character, is absolutely intolerable. I turned off speech after about 15 minutes. Other than that, I really like this and can definitely recommend it for fans of the genre.

cute but way too long waking paths

don't get me wrong. it's a cute game and has the typical retro charm. however, the paths from an object or to an project are way too far apart. you have to laboriously click through useless scenes to pick up a banana, for example. it eats up so much time.... it's such a shame.

Very enjoyable

I found this game incredibly enjoyable. Reminiscent of Indiana Jones, as well as pulp adventure stories. Quirky and humorous, it doesn't take itself too seriously as it plays with a ridiculous plot and plenty of tropes. As someone who was looking for an afternoon of something low-key and a fun adventure, this totally fit the bill. None of the elements were overly difficult once I got used to the control system (mostly an issue of understanding the order of things). I kept forgetting that I had the "move" option, which had me stuck a couple times. It's free, so really, how are you going to lose out by giving this a shot?
