    Not So Grim A Game

    One of the first point and click adventure games i ever played and got absolutly addicted it was one of those games that consumes your every waking hour trying to solve every puzzle to push foward the brillaint and extremly amusing story full of rich and colourful charecters.

I recomend it to all point and click adventure fan especially those who enjoy other greats like monkey island and broken sword.
