Spud!

What a horrible game to share a nickname with. Even with a guide it took two hours, and it was all awful. Horrible animation, acting, jokes, references, gameplay, logic... Screw this game. I need therapy. I'm considering picking a different internet handle now. Don't play this.

this ♥♥♥♥ puts silent hill to shame

I recommend this game purely as a blast from the past, or "so bad it's good". I remember having this game around 1996 and wondering why a kids game would be so violent (yes, you die in gruesome ways...). Until I realized it's not a kids game. And after knowing that, I had some laughs with some friends I showed it too. To be honest, it's incredibly bad. It's clearly influenced by other 3D-animated FMV adventure games from the time, like Atlantis: the Lost Tales. But where that game was engaging, this is just annoying. The shockfactor is fun in the beginning, and even continuing is a bit of fun, just to see what absurdity they thought of next. But ultimately, you'll play this for a maximum of an hour, and never again after that. The only reason I remember playing this longer, was simply, I had nothing else to play. I got this for € 1,99, and bought it just for the nostalgia trip, but ultimately even that was too much. So why did I recommend it? Well, just because of the fun of seeing it again after twenty years. If you;ve never played it, or have no nostalgic feelings for it otherwise, don't buy it. If you like other "So bad, it's good" games, you might give this a shot, but no guarantees... ;)

this made me want to die

[h1] Genre [/h1] Ein First Person Point & Click Adventure [h1] Story [/h1] Wir spielen einen Jungen Namens Spud der scheinbar einen Bösen Wissenschaftler namens Doctor Chillblane aufhalten muss um die Welt von seiner Terrorherrschaft zu retten [h1] Gameplay [/h1] Das Spiel spielt sich wie viele Spiele aus der Zeit (Mitte der 90er). Gespielt wird nur mit der Maus. Wir können uns drehen und wenn man auf die Pfeile klickt bewegt man sich in die dem entsprechende Richtung. Unterwegs sammelt man Gegenstände ein und redet mit verschiedenen Figuren und löst Rätsel. Das Spiel ist sehr Merkwürdig und Technisch unspielbar. Es ruckelt ohne Ende. Teilweise stocken die Filmsequenzen und jedesmal wenn man sich in eine Richtung bewegt. Stoppt das Spiel für ungefähr 2 Sekunden und das Bild verschwimmt kurz zu einen Farbenbrei. Ich habe mir ein Walkthrough angeschaut und das Spiel scheint ein absoluter Fiebertraum zu sein also von Klassiker kann hier wohl nicht die Rede sein [h1] Pro/Contra [/h1] - Technisch ist das Spiel auf Modernen Rechnern unspielbar (Ruckler, Aussetzer & Farbenbrei in den Cutscenes) - Alles ist Seltsam wie ein Fiebertraum [h1] Fazit [/h1] Ein Spiel was auf Modernen Rechnern nicht mehr Lauffähig zu sein scheint obwohl es in DOSBox läuft und ich habe schon andere Ältere Spiele aus den 90ern gespielt die wiederum hervorragend liefen. Ein Großer Verlust scheint es aber nicht zu sein weil das Spiel scheinbar ein einziger verrückter Alptraum zu sein scheint. Zumindest was ich im Walkthrough Videos gesehen habe. Ich kann es in diesem Zustand nicht Empfehlen 👑 Powered by HoI 4 Deu Curators group in German / English 👑⠀⠀⠀[list][*][url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/30388691/] Follow Main group [/url][*] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40282064/] Follow Second group [/url][*] [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44688798/] Follow third group [/url][/list]

No potatoes.

It is truly unfortunate that someone had to bash this game simply because they didn't fully understand how to play. This is an OLD game and it was truly immersive for it's time. That being said, they never claimed to have remastered this game in really any way, so to expect phenomenal graphics is laughable. This is a very fun point and click game. Christmas themed (believe it or not) and tons of interesting things to see and take in along the way. Someone has mentioned some small form of racism within the game, and if it is the part I am thinking of- it is all in the eye of the beholder. Its a puzzle game from 1995 and there is absolutely NO reason not to play this game. Especially right now when people are thirsty for nostalgia and Christmas is right around the corner. Don't let negative reviews determine whether you will attempt a game or not- for I almost missed this gem due to Mr. "I am going to change my handle because of this game" and the numerous people who encouraged his comment. Give it a try and throw it back for yourself this Holiday Season :)

While it was ahead of its time when released and the gameplay is unique to say the least the story and plot are utterly horrific. That being said I am currently working on speedrunning it for kicks and because I actually gain a small amount of enjoyment from bad games and movies.

I strapped an alarm clock and some TNT to the Duracell Bunny to make a time bomb.
