There should be a special category for this game - like a Hall of Legends. It has all the ingredients that made Monkey Island famous, while the main character, the story and the settings have enough original traits to make the game keep out of the shadow of well known titles. With its rich enough variety of characters, the hand drawn images using just as much lines as to leave some room for your imagination, the light, playful music and the pace and turns of the story - it succeeds in pulling you into its world.
And it's not so easy to escape its charms once you started playing because the story takes place in the time of eternal youth when there are no burdens and the Sun keeps rising in the horizon. According to that age, the main character is defined by a mix ofbravery and a positive outlook on life, expressed as humor. To have the attitude of the main character seems to be the message of the game. Then, as the hero, you would get the support of the majority and defeat the ba

To have the attitude of the main character seems to be the message of the game. Then, as the hero, you would get the support of the majority and defeat the bad guy. Well, reality is a bit different, but it's not my place to say more of this here.
Concerning the other possible message of protecting the wildlife, I would point at the different attitude that Nelly has towards the cat. Sure, it's funny, but there's a difference.
But I don't think that this game will remain in your memory for its messages. It will remain for being a very well put together work of art and for the enjoyment that it brought you. For me it was a delight.

I've played it last night... I love the story of it and the twist near the end. And I too hope Alasdair provides a sequel soon! What adventure will Nelly have next?

Best AGS game ever! I hope Alasdair continues working on the sequel.

Definitely one of the best games I've played from AGS. Everything about it was right on the money - the graphics, the writing, the humor, the cute story, the coin interface, the fast travel, the level of difficulty... everything just top-notch. Kudos and congratulations.

The game was lovely. Definitely in the top 3 of my favorite AGS games. It was clever, had great pacing, and gorgeous graphics.

What a surprisingly good, fun game. I am glad I didn't miss it. I hope there is another made. Good job.

Wonderful game! Graphics are whimsical and very well done, storyline is original, humor is refreshing. The game kept me interested and playing for several hours. Puzzles are moderately challenging and enhance the game's pace. I encountered an occasional glitch with the dialogue flashing through too quickly to see. This was solved by saving, then going into a new screen, and returning to the saved screen. Otherwise, the game ran smoothly without errors. One of my favorite AGS games! Kudos to Mr. Beckett, et al!
