Day of the Tentacle Remastered is an excellent remaster of the original 1993 classic, a game combining wit, charm, and madness in a point-and-click adventure.

It drops players into a world of time travel, where quirky characters and absurd scenarios await. It blends slapstick, wordplay, and dark humor while nodding to the pop culture of the 1980's and early 1990's.

I first attempted this game back in the 90's but couldn’t quite figure it out. This time around I used this guide to complete the game and obtain all the achievements. The puzzles can be challenging, and without a guide, I would have given up in frustration because the story doesn't have the payoff for the effort required.

The remaster itself is fantastic, beautiful, and modern, allowing you to switch to the original graphics at any time. Again, on the third floor of the mansion in the present, the full game of Maniac Mansion can be played on the computer in the right-side room. I played and completed the main game on the Steam Deck, where it worked perfectly.

All in all, this is a great little game to check out if you have the patience and can think like a cartoon character!
