I was very surprised when I played this game and to tell you the truth, I was immersed by it until the very end. It's an addictive little gem that probably wouldn't hold up against a lot of games around today but was one of the best years ago. The puzzles aren't overly confusing but they remain tricky enough for hardcore gamers. To interact with the world you click on an array of actions and then the object. The gameplay is quite addictive and you wil be playing for hours upon hours. It's an adventure game like you've never seen before and if you've played games like Sam and Max and the like then you'll love this game.
The game allows you to interact with historical figures such as George Washinton and Benjamin Franklin to name a few. The graphics are cartoony and quite hilarious. Nothing graphically special however still quite inviting and fun.
The game is great value by todays standards and is really fun to play. :'(
