    DOTT is one of my absolute favorite games, still, and not much will change that. But – by Odin! – this soundtrack is unbearable to listen to. The fun I was having playing the game, and the great visuals must have made it more passable.

    Maniac Mansion wasn't a favorite of mine, but the sequel improved the original game's formula in every way possible. It wasn't just a graphical revamp. It features a colorful cast of unique characters, from a fat rock band roadie to a nerdy girl with a bad hair day. They travel through time to try and stop the plans of Purple Tentacle.

    Along they way, they meet up with George Washington, effeminate beauty pageant guys and sly IRS workers who look more like agents of the FBI. No other point-and-click ever matched up to the bizarre humor and the cinematic production values of Day of the Tentacle.

    Well executed time travel concept and story here, with cartoon quality visuals to reel you in. I actually laughed a few times, which is not common for me when playing games that try to be funny. That said, some of the puzzles are pretty dumb and the soundtrack isn't nearly as memorable as in the prequel (NES ver.), though still quite fitting in style. I recommend it as an introduction to the genre or as a good comical game, but have a guide ready to keep the experience smooth.

    During a failed time-travelling experiment early into the story of "Day Of The Tentacle", your three playable characters are split up in three eras of the same house: past, present and future.

    The goal is to find a way back, but also to avert Purple Tentacle's menacing world domination. That's right: familiar characters are returning to the Maniac Mansion in a more modern cartoon look - which appeals to both, older and newer gamers.

    Playing this point-n-click adventure four-dimensionally, your changes in the past affect the future and items from the future can be sent to the past. This mechanic makes for some great puzzles - and brilliant humor.

    You can even play the predecessor in its entirety in an in-game arcade - sweet!

    Probably the first and last time I laughed out loud playing a video game.
