Along the way, you'll encounter fearsome monsters, classic fairy tale characters, corporate fast food, and more puzzles than you can shake your cursor at. Over eighty environments to explore! Dozens of brain-twisting puzzles! Guaranteed head-scratchers, hair-pullers, and nail-biters included! Built-in hint system to help you beat the game without consulting the Internet!
