Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle

I want to have Tim Schafer's babies

Tim Schafer, in my opinion, is truly the Spielberg of games. And this is his Raiders Of The Lost Ark. A revolutionary, fantastic masterpiece which everyone loves.

Featuring the funniest, most charming characters in a game EVER (except for Glottis from GF), this truly is one of the few great story-driven games ever to be produced. I mean, how much of a legend is Hoagie? ("Dude, you're like, George Washington, man!", the best line of dialogue in game and cinema history).

The puzzles are mightily impressive, with logical objectives and solutions, featuring the same wacky humour as the rest of the game.

This truly is one of the best games ever produced.
