And on top all that, this screen shot lp was very entertaining and simply doesn't convey how intensely frustrating and boring this game is to play. The number of times everything comes to a grinding halt because you are forced to collect x amount of some item that either appears randomly or has a slow number of step get forever to get is simply ridiculous. I'd have chalked it up to game padding, but then there was that "Nice try" event that doing the obvious mentioned where if you try to save yourself some time grinding at a later point the game won't let you. This game both rewards and punishes you with more busy work. What I'm trying to say is that this game is pure evil.

It's hard for me to be too critical on the game partially due to rose tinted nostalgia glasses, but also because upon revisiting it just is far from a completed project. Oh, a few addendums about the final act, the 'Nice Try' only happens if you try to leave enough sesame seeds around to not have to deal with the pawn shop later. Not sure exactly how many, but you will need at least three to make one fish cream sandwich, so it's probably three. Bottle(s) of cream will always be erased. The other thing I forgot to mention is that if you clutter up the fish cream parlor with random inventory, it will still be waiting for you when the trial happens. You have to do this before repairing the machine, after you do then the normal crowd is there and you can't drop anything. Guess it was a matter of or they didn't think that someone would be bothered to drop all sorts of random crap in that particular area. Small example:

It says so much about the game that they didn't make new sprites for Kallak and Brandon for the big trial.

So Malcolm was always an rear end in a top hat, just not a murdering rear end in a top hat. Eh, I'll take what I can get.

Man. This was the first adventure game I ever played. I remember enjoying it, even though I had to use a walkthrough, but dang. You put up with a lot of bullshit when you're a kid and don't know any better! Anyway, great LP. Thanks!
