He's a clam, and he's a man. Yep. Clam Man. Our eponymous hero gets fired from his job and sets out to prove his boss is part of some shadowy conspiracy in order to get his job back. Hijinks, as you might guess, ensue. The problem with comedy games is that if the humour doesn't gel with you then much of the experience falls flat. Such is the case with Clam Man, which uses internet-friendly random and chaotic laughs as the basis for its comedy, none of which hugely resonates with me. The game itself is a love letter to LucasArts-era point-and-click adventure games, and if you've any nostalgia for that time in PC gaming then you might well find something warming and familiar with Clam Man.
