The game 's okay and can pass for an "old school game" where you mostly do H.O. scenes... However...
It's rather tedious in item finds (some can be downright unrecognizable) and at times you need to click more than 3x to actually PICK UP THE ITEM!
Now, I wouldn't have a problem with this game... But I can't even finish it.
My cable for the car battery...
Couldn't even get through case 2 without it breaking. The bear token refused to go on the totem, regardless of restarting game, computer, etc. Also, some items to find were changed colour to blend in, not actually hidden or part of the scene. Green hedgehog the same colour as the grass, says it all.
This game uses harmful stereotypes, and sometimes is just straight up broken.
