Adventures is one of the messiest games I've ever played. It has a lot of charm and is technically very impressive for its time, but the rushed development really shows through sometimes.

The pacing falls apart in its second half, with important encounters either being rushed through or slapped together. I also have a problem with how overly simplistic and repetitive both the combat and puzzles are. But it at least has good music, fun exploration, amusingly campy writing and voice acting, and isn't usually too frustrating (except for the staff aiming controls, dear lord they're atrocious).

It all somewhat balances out into a mediocre experience for me, and isn't essential to go out of your way to play nowadays. Unless you have a lot of nostalgia for it... or it was responsible for your furry awakening years ago... which is totally not applicable to me... cough.
