The game had potential relying on old school nostalgia for those original adventure computer games of the 1980s that I absolutely loved. However, this one just fell flat for me. The jokes and dialogue were slow, tedious and childish. The puzzles were ridiculous... not hard, just the objects made no sense to the solution so I found myself early on in chapter 1 already searching for walkthroughs. By almost two hours in, and starting chapter 2, I was fed up, frustrated and not enjoying it enough to continue. Too bad as I had high hopes for it.

Fun game, not too long, clever humor. Some puzzles are a little annoying, there are a few spots where the clickable item is easy to overlook, but other than that it's worth it.
Also, I enjoy the easter eggs written into the dialogue.

I love this series, and my two little pixel faceless men :)
The humor is humorous, the lore is generous, the puzzles are fun, and there is no stone left unturned, nor dialogue unread. Everything means something, so it is good to pay close attention and look between the puns.
I cannot wait for the next installment! Or- well, I suppose I CAN wait. The whole point is that I am willing to wait, as I cannot contain my excitement! Or... I guess I CAN contain it, given that I'm willing to wait-
