Overview

40 Winks (also known as "Ruff & Tumble") is a 3D action-platform game in which you play as Ruff or Tumble, two children who must battle ghosts, goblins and other monsters in their dream-world. They must try to capture 40 winks scattered around the world in order to stop an evil old man named Nitekap. Nitekap wants to turn the winks into hood-winks, the things responsible for nightmares. You also have to find the 12 dream keys to unlock the boss level. A unique aspect of the game allows the players to temporarily morph into different costumes with special abilities. The costumes include a Prehistoric Man, Jester, Super Hero, and Ninja.

Good 3D platformer game (if a bit uninspired), but awful Steam version. You see, this is basically the PS1 version of the game with an shoddy emulator attached to it. It's a simple fix, however. Navigate to the game folder, and look in the folder named "game". Now you have a ROM of the game you can run on literally any other PS1 emulator. For the fact...

I had to put in five minutes in order to do this "review". Piko if you know what's best. I suggest not responding to this. --- The Good: Open Source Emulation (PCSX-Reloaded) The Bad: Paying <insert your price> for an Open Source Emulator (PCSX-Reloaded). HLE Bios Low Customisation. The Ugly: Piko Interactive's default on Video Plugin and their "Recommended"...
