"Float ashore on a strange island
Ittle and Tippsie crash onto yet another island filled with loot, puzzles and mysterious inhabitants! With the help of a magical map, they set out to steal eight pieces of a raft from increasingly improbable locations including beaches, prairies, an art exhibit and some dude's basement.
Wield magical weapons
Discover four weapons that double as puzzle solving items, and upgrade them by finding additional copies. Secret artifacts abound in the island's many hidden caves, all of which can be found and solved with your starting equipment!
Adventure your own way
Who needs a map, anyway? Tackle the first seven dungeons in any order, and use your items to open various shortcuts within. The craftiest of adventurers have more than one way to open a locked door."

But there’s just so much annoyance layered on top for absolutely no discernible reason, beyond presumably a fear that their sequel didn’t feel sufficiently different. The silly...
A sequel, where more of the same is more than enough: more heart warming humour for a long and dark winter.
