Ok, we adventure fans have been hearing about this game for 3-4 years now and the hype had gone to the sky and back. Now that its finally here,i've played it,finished it and think it's just a sup-par adventure with great art thrown here and there from tiller.
Nowhere near classic games such as monkey island 1,2,3 or even 4!!
Flaws: Many:
1)) Too small, its just an 1/3 of a big nice adventure, that's maybe cause it will be a trilogy...
2) Too much not funny dialog that makes it boring, the characker froderick is exactly the same as max in the sam 'n max games, talking so much that you wish he would shut up a bit (the same flaw that the episodic sam'n max had).
3)Animated scenes have too many glitches, and all 3d art is plain ugly and dated
4)Too sweet, cutesy and girlie for its dark theme... I beleived in something with a bit more atmoshere and not pinky purple everywhere..it feels as a dark vampyric episode of my little pony!!

5)About 90% of the places have been shown in various screenshots, subtracting from the mystery of what the new loacations will look like..
6)Froderick shut up!

The good aspects of the game include:
1)Very nice 2-d artwork in the vein of classic adventures
2)Some nice riddles but not really on top as those in monkey island or dott etc
3)Some few funny moments
4)Snowing
5)Its an adventure trying to, but unfortunately failing, give homage to the legends

Anyway i know it is a difficult effort in this day and age to produce a really good adventure game, but this doesn't make it better it feels a bit amateurish all along.

They should have released it as a whole story polishing all the bits and cutting lots and lots of extra unecessary dialog that tries to be funny but fails blatanly.
3 Stars cause im an adventure fan and i believe.
Btw if you like adventures and have spare money,buy it.
