Product description

Product Information
Overlooked the last time around, Day of the Tentacle is on the list for the funny-as-hell adventures of three different characters as they tackle problems within the same house but in different periods of time: the present, 200 years in the past, and 200 years in the future. This opens up some bizarre possibilities for puzzles such as hiding away some wine to get some vinegar for the future or socking away a few hundred thousand quarters to shrink a sweater. All this to stop the mad plans of a purple tentacle that grew some limbs thanks to toxic waste. Classic.

Highly interactive and most fun for PC game, ever.

Created: 12/12/08
This game was my favorite in the early 1990's, but when my new computer didn't need a sound card and could not play a game with old technology and floppy disks, I was very sad. When I saw DOTT on ebay for an IBM compatible, I jumped on it. The price was not relevant, as the memories of the involved hours spent playing the game rushed back. The game characters are NOT life-like, but are charming and cute. The graphics are bright and fun and this game takes some strategy. You have to interact with the 3 characters (Bernard, Hoagie and Laverne), after they were sent to different historical times, and get them to work together to defeat the Purple Tentacle and bring them all back home. I missed this game and thought about it for over a decade, and was thrilled to find it on ebay, grateful to find it in such great condition and to purchase it from such an awesome ebayer. Two thumbs up, way UP !!

Love DOTT, Classic, pain to set up in Vista but love it

Created: 07/03/10
DOTT is the classic Lucus Arts game. If you have Vista or any newer program it is hard to set up and can be a pain. Easy once you "google" how to do it. Must have internet to download programs to run DOTT. Love the game, if you haven't played it, you must!

Different than I remembered

Created: 30/01/11
I was really disappointed, because it wasn't exactly how I remembered it. The program is very slow and has to run a certain way - you can't jump around on the game. Just a lot older than I remembered and isn't as enjoyable to play as I had expected.
