If you like point and click adventure games, it was good. If you didn't, it wasn't. Simple as that. Pure niche, pure old school, pure hardcore.

Hey you are talking to someone who LOVED The Longest Journey, Hotel Dusk and a myriad of other games like that.

Pure quirky too. Touch Detective is a game that is admittedly flawed (though they say they're fixing some of those in the sequels), so your love for point-and-clicks had to overcome the first game's shortcomings.

I'm all over this one, just like the original...If you love a straight-forward point-'n-click with hilarious dialogue, don't miss out...

Something tells me Bill will have this game beat before I even buy it. And I'm buying it this week!
