Why change clothes for something like that? I mean, it is his castle. A better question to raise is, why can't he access certain rooms and floors in his own castle before searching for hidden keys? I guess the people who hid her body parts also locked up all the rooms and hid keys. So probably most likely Dr. Franken is playing an ARG, and you are controlling him. I think I answered my own question.

Is it wrong that I thought of Al Franken when I saw the title?

Oh, good. I'm gonna go ahead and get a lame "this game sure puts the 'romance' in 'necromancer'" joke out of my system while the bump is still fresh.

Quite honestly, even if this game wasn't a brilliant masterpiece, it deserved being published much more than that xtreme piece of radical crap that was the SNES version.


The Game Boy version was nice, too.

Sure thing. I remember i got all these promotional booklets by Ubi Soft/Ludi Games (they were small developers back then up until Street Racer and Rayman i guess, mostly publishing trough the name Ludi Games). And in there was the SNES Dr. Franken i remember. Did Elite/Movietime go to Ubi Soft for 'bigger' publishing for the disastrous SNES version i wonder?

Cool, thanks! I have that same ad in some issues of Total!, but scanning those oversized pages is a pain.

Hehe, well, the pages of Total! are of a 'friendly' size in comparison to the old C&VG ones, they're HUGE! That's the reason i couldn't fully scan the ad; didn't fit under the scanner i'm afraid. Well, at least it's something i guess...
