Substandard, Unfunny Adventure
I ran out and bought this at release as it was very well received in magazines but was disappointed. It aims for the zaniness of something like Day of the Tentacle and Sam & Max, but with an adult twist. Unfortunately, this attempt at "edgy" humour falls flat on its face and what you are left with is an incomprehensibly unfunny adventure. There's nothing special in the puzzles or hidden anywhere else in the game either - it's a poorly-assembled mess that almost never inspires interest in its ham-fisted, tiresome and cringe-worthy proceedings. I did manage to complete it and would not consider it very difficult. Remember getting stuck in a number of places where poor design and over-long animations made it a lot more cumbersome, tedious and infuriating to try possible solutions. To this day Toonstruck is hidden at the back of my collection - sharing a corner with Ultima IX. It was a lesson to my sixteen year-old self to be more discerning in future. Since it flopped very badly it is sometimes held up as a sign of the beginning of the end for the once-mighty adventure genre - a big-budget game that got very good reviews but still failed. To me it was more a failure by the reviewers to spot an absolute stinker.
