![]() Note Regarding Spoilers and Companion Assist Points: There's a set of rules regarding spoilers and companion assist points. Luckily, I am certain this cannot be a really long game. Thus, I am forced to play this game of cars with unnaturally large eyes all by myself.

Putt-Putt games were targeted for children from 3 to 7 years. I should probably also mention the child actor Jason Ellefson, who was the voice of Putt-Putt in almost all of his games. In addition to these two persons from LucasArts, other notable names involved in the making of the game are Laurie Rose Bauman and Annie Fox, who were responsible for the writing of the game and who were also involved with Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective. Indeed, the character of Putt-Putt had been invented as a bedtime story for her 3-year old son. Apparently it is not him that I should blame for the choice of their first adventure game character, but Shelley Day, co-founder of Humongous, who had also worked for LucasArts. Thus I was quite surprised to find out that Humongous was founded by none other than Ron Gilbert of Monkey Island fame, after he had left LucasArts. ![]() To tell the truth, before doing research for this post I hadn’t really heard about the company - what can I say, I haven’t touched children’s games that much. ![]() ![]() It it thus with some trepidation that I approach the first game of Humongous Entertainment. ![]()
