Tony Tough and the Night of Roasted Moths

stary dobry klasyczny point and click

Dopo quasi 15 anni rimetto mano su questa avventura grafica, forse la primissima con cui ho avuto a che fare. L'ho trovata, nuovamente, intuitiva, originale, godibilissima. Cosparsa di nonsense ironici ovunque e di riferimenti. Difficoltà media (ma solo perché certi enigmi sono fuori di testa), molto molto scorrevole. Trama simpatica e doppiaggi di qualità (vedi Luca Sandri). Un gioco spensierato. Consiglio il gioco nel periodo di Halloween. :-) Spero di mettere presto le mani sul nuovo titolo in sviluppo. Forza, ragazzi!

Eines der wenigen Point & Click Games, die ich damals in der Kindheit echt gerne gespielt hab.

About the original game: I used to think this game was cool with the Halloween theme, beautiful graphics, wacky characters and quirky but rather irritating protagonist. However this game is hard, and for all the wrong reasons. When you figure out a puzzle it's not a heureka! moment but rather "what the hell...?" kind of. So I think some parts of the game have not been designed and scripted well, or done so in a hurry. However, the story is intriguing and you want to know what happens next so you keep trying. It's gotten lot of negative reviews since it's release but I find myself coming back to this game time and time again. It's a forgotten game from the 90's, haven't aged too well maybe but anyone who loves PnC genre and classic LucasArts style should play it. I just wish, there was a way to play the second game "Rake's progress". About the Steam release: There seems to be a problem with ScummVM games on Steam because you can't access program settings, those have been automatically adjusted for user(how kind!) and the program is not kept up to date. So this causes problems(bugs and crashes) and I'm not the only one experiencing it. Given that people give money for these products Steam really should get program settings up to date since this is not the first ScummVM game people have problems with.
