Day of the Tentacle is a classic in the point and click adventure game genre.

An entertaining game that contains a silly sense of humour but is also engaging. The game consists of a lot of puzzles that can be quite difficult to solve if you’re not using a guide.

The art style and sound design make Day of the Tentacle work. The art style is as silly as the humour and adds to the overall tone of the game which makes it all work.

The premise of Day of the Tentacle is that a purple tentacle sets out to enslave the human race and you the player controlling three kids, Bernard, Hoagie and Laverne must set out to stop them by splitting up and travelling through time with one character in the past, one staying in the present, and one in the future.

The puzzles are solved by sending objects through time and combining them or using them on objects in a certain time period.

I enjoyed my time with Day of the Tentacle Remastered, It’s not the easiest game to play because of the puzzles that can be hard to solve but it’s a must play game for fans of the point and click genre.

Played on: Xbox Series X via Xbox Game Pass
