great game, but ... the "walkthrough" is a video with a 30 second advert at the start? WTF? next time, please link to a "web page" - they're an amazing invention, with "writ-ing" on them, that give you "information"

a far better P+C game than the one badgefied last week. But, there were still some irksome bits, the Kraken should have given a hint for the last action, had to look at the walkthrough to figure it out. Room changing took too long, sometimes you just researched every room just to see f anything changed, so the wait became very noticable. Music was cool at first, but its ust a short loop, a full soundtrack would have been nice.
But, the artwork was interesting and the story was interesting enough. Should do a sequel or another P+C game.
Also on a sidenote was the bell that did nothing a reference to that godawful what was it...P+C game based on Alice in Wonderland? o_O.
4/5.

Not a bad game. Definitely a nice twist on the point and click genre, but getting around is a fair bit too slow...especially with so much backtracking and so few areas. The music also gets pretty old pretty quick. Still, an enjoyable game.

I enjoy the "Don't drink and drive (a boat)" message. Apparently if you do that you'll end up in the bottom of the ocean trying to find your clothes. Terrible scenario, so don't do it.

Not a particularly bad game, the jokes are humorous and it had good artwork, but one problem with it was the fact that it wasn't particularly linear. How would we know to go back and talk to the fish at points? Or use the eel on bacteria? I found myself stuck for a while trying to find out where to go. I'll give it a 4/5 for now, it could be better, but it's not a bad game :D

Seriously, thanks for the mute option *before* sound! I am always blasting music while playing games and hate the I have to listen to every intro first! So annoying.

funny stuff, though at times it was hard to distinguish between jokes and hints. the latter puzzles , the bacteria in particular, were pretty random =/ but ya, was fun =)

@Shoe838 Anyone who played the old point and clicks of the classic Era can appreciate this... Were talking the original Myst and older... 95% of the puzzles were crafted of pure high quality WTF and randomly clicking of items in your inventory on everything till something has a reaction

This has got beautiful artwork, especially at the end, and good humor. But it suffers from the same thing as a lot of other PaC's, the puzzles just being so random and illogical.

I love it how when he's walking to the right hand side of the screen, his rum is in his right hand, but when he turns to the left hand side of the screen, it's instantly in his left hand.

if you click on an arrow and then on your treasure chest then you skip all the walking. Very effective time saver seeing how slow he walks. rate this up for all to know +

Fun point and click. The dialog trees could use some work, as it's wasteful to get sent back to the beginning when there are other options to choose 3 steps in.
The illogic of the puzzle to fill the whale was disappointing.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings. I guess she's alive and locked up. (Also if I had tentacles and a captured mermaid I'd have better things to do than eating her.)"

Beautifully Illustrated, my favorite part being the white rat in the Kraken's Den. Was a real pleasure to play. Thanks for a short diversion from a busy day.

Great Jokes
and love how you can make the game fail, because if the whale teaches you whelsh over 26 times, a year has passed and the stories should add +1 year .. I know I don't make much sense xD idm, really enjoying this game atm
