I used the Necronomicon to turn the President into a zombie. Then I ran him over with a skateboard, and had Cthulhu fight a raptor. Cthulhu won.
Who else has this game?

you are a violent man. I made a priest, a rabbi and sheikh ride sheep together. I'm not really excited by the writing things and having them come up but it is still a good puzzle game. even though the controls and the camera are shit.

My gaming experiences rarely go beyond "Bejewelled Blitz" on Facebook - but this sounds very intriguing.

I am so jealous. I need a DS. I want this game badly.

Yeah, it's amazing how badly they messed up the controls and camera. It's like, NO I moved the camera over there because I want to glue two fiddly things together, stop snapping back to my dude all the way across the level!
And of course stylus-based motion and selection leads to all sorts of obnoxiousness like it becoming difficult to select specific items or even move to places.
But it's still a hell of a lot of fun, even if I still can't figure out how to get past the damn tornado in world 1. (The obvious thing, "teleporter," just teleports you to an entirely different level, where you can meet the crew of 5th Cell.)

The tornado is a piece of piss compared to what's coming. Some of the action levels are like Vinnie Jones (well hard). 3-2 took me over and hour to get but that was mostly because Maxwell kept running into a tripwire and fucking it all up. I'm setting up an elaborate contraption on one side of the screen (with my thumb on the d-pad because of the stupid camera) and in he comes because I've touched an object and the game thinks I've touched empty space, or because I tried to walk over my contraption and accidentally picked it up, dropping Maxwell and the starite into lava, or because I've tried to walk over my contraption and Maxwell has jumped about over it like a maniac, kicking the starite into the lava. It's like they didn't test the game before they released it.
