Entertaining but not quite the legend

It's been years since nearly all my gamer friends have pushed me to discover Day of the tentacle. When I heard that it was remastered, I decided to give it a shot. DoT is certainly an outstanding game. The scenario is entertaining and very funny. The characters are really fun and add a lot to the environment (voice acting is on point as well). The witty remarks that make point and click games so addicting are there as well. But I tend to like point and click games that combine humour with adventure and the adventure is quite lacking to be honest. The game is quite static. It takes place only in one mansion (even though there will be some changes. Can't say more without avoiding spoilers really). The setting of the game in one mansion has also big advantages. The first one is challenge. There is no real guideline in what you have to do. You can collect an object during the first 20 minutes of the game that you will only need at the end. As a player you are thus completely free and even if the combination are logic, you need to set your own objective before starting to collect things blindly. Attention to dialogue is thus key. Contrary to MOnkey Island that is more linear (you cannot leave a zone util you have unlocked it and found every object needed), you can wander in all the space available without restraints. The game is filled to the rim of cultural references and I recognise that it is REALLY a must for fans of point and click games. However, I do not find it as enthralling as it was presented to me. I still enjoyed it and plan to start again with the commentaries of the production.

Great adventure

This is one of the best adventure games you will find. It's a massive classic and the first game I that had full voice in it. I was amazed when I saw it back in the early 90's. Though the old game still holds it's ground the remake is rather good thank's to the original persons behind it. If you have not played it then for the love of games buy it now!!!!!

A Classic Revision Done Right

This Remastered edition was in fact my first experience playing this game at all. And not only did I enjoy it, I ended up dowright loving it! In terms of presentation I think that the update does justice to the original, or at least, offers a valid alternative to the original take in both graphics and soundtrack. Now the game is truly a cartoon adventure of sorts which doesn't look bad on modern screens at all. Gameplay improvements such as the verb wheel are also appreciated (I personally feel the verb system can be very tedious, which I experienced via the copy of Maniac Mansion that is present in DotT). And the strongs of the game are still present, such as the whacky, very peculiar humour that took me aback despite having played various graphic adventures before this one. It is a game I can recommend without a doubt! I wanted to mention two technical problems I encountered. The first one is a music bug that made music tracks loop in wrong places indifinitely, preventing you from experiencing the soundtrack. Thankfully a very recent patch fixed that, so in case you encounter mentions of this issue online, it's now fixed on GOG as well. The second one is a problem with subtitles that do not keep up with dialogue, making it so that the characters finish talking and then wait for the subtitles to finish, creating long awkward pauses that can be very annoying and ruin the timing of jokes. I'm not sure what the technicalities are, however there exists a method not stated in the controls window within the game that lets you increase or decrease the delay of dialogue subtitles. So in case you encounter this issue, simply choose a character you can repeatedly talk with and use their dialogue exchange as reference while editing the delay until you find your preferred value. The keys for changing it in a QWERTY Italian keyboard are '-' decrease and '+' increase, and they can be different for other keyboard types, so check how to do it in SCUMMV to find the correct keys.

Brilliant Remake

Have to say this game was practically my childhood. I used to go to after school club and this was one of two games they had on the Windows 95 PC there. Plays exactly how I remember it, and works on modern systems too (including Windows 10). Not sure about the new interface, however I guess its a comprimise that had to be made so that the console version could be made. I'd prefer an option to have the older interface but this is a minor complaint at best.

This game really holds up

About 23 years ago, I played this beautiful games called 'Day of the Tentacle'. It was one of my favourite adventure games, alongside 'Sam & Max Hit the Road' and 'The Secret of Monkey Island'. I replayed the latter two recently and was surprised by how well these game held up over two decades later. Now, 'DotD' finally got remastered, and it played better than ever. True, the 90s adventure game mechanics are getting dated, but the story, characters, voice acting, and humour are still great and vibrant by today's standard. The bonus features of production artwork and developers' commentary are a nice touch to an already appealing game.
