Day of the Tentacle Remastered

Grim Fandango is deservedly loved, but Full Throttle has a special place in my heart.

First, because it was one of the first "talkie" adventure games I legally owned -- I think it came as a demo game with the Soundblaster card? -- and also because of the cartoon art style and post-apocalyptic biker gangs theme. And the voice-overs. I really, really would love to see a sequel done in glorious 2D. 3D would ruin it for me; the style was everything in this game.

Ah yes, The Gone Jackals. After finishing Full Throttle and being so smitten by that tune I resolved to find a copy of their album 'Bone to Pick'. As a 12 year old kid it took me some time to figure out where to buy it but definitely worth the time and pocket money spent!

An underrated album and still very much worth a listen.

I utterly adored Full Throttle. As a kid, it was the first adventure game I was able to complete without a guide.
