- If you like maniac mansion, lots of inventory, and exploration then get this game. Almost all of the puzzles are logical or common point & click wisdom with one minor exception: [spoiler]Talking into the radiator pipes to distract Rogy[/spoiler][hr][/hr]-I also like the graphics and the voice acting a nice bonus but won't win any awards. It's a decent sized game too.[hr][/hr]-My one complaint is lots of dead inventory items not getting purged when used. Also using inventory outside of the bag could be streamlined.

About This Game
Creating a beast so vicious that the world lives in fear and terror. A Weredog!
The last missing ingredient to awake the Weredog is ... a dog.
Jay, his dog Bobby and his friends Jerry and Mike having a good time at the playground. But things are changing quickly, when Professor Crackbrain's assistant Rogy shows up to kidnap Bobby.
Immediately, Jay, Jerry and Mike forge out a plan to sneak into the Crackbrain Mansion and come to the rescue of Bobby.
Professor Crackbrain - and the awakening of the weredog is a classic point & click adventure game full of nostalgic allusions, pixelish puzzles and chiptunish music.

User Reviews
Well, just ...no. This game is horrible. Most of the voice acting is AI-generated, robotic, unemotional, monotonic crap, the game is REALLY badly tweaked, mouse cursor slows down to few frames per second every once in a while. Simple graphics and generic interface, and STILL the game manages to take 8GB of hard disc space??? Good heavens!! I'm going to ask for a refund.
