I was very excited to see a game that wasn't about vampires, ghosts, lost children, or some fairytale storyline. This was a very fun, upbeat, and entertaining game. It almost reminded of the game Grim Fandango. Although very fun, nothing is quite as fun as Grim Fandango (hint hint BF!). I sure would love to see more game verities like this one. Great job!
I recommend this game!

After reading some of the reviews on this game, I almost didn't get it. But I'm keeping my faith in the MCF games, and although this one isn't my favorite, I thought it was a lot of fun. I'm really not understanding why so many people didn't like this game. Ya, Lea Thompson was a little corny, but it's a game, not a serious movie, and to me she seemed to have a lot fun with the character. I also don't understand how some people got lost on the plot either. It most certainly was not a complicated one, but the game kept you moving forward by completing the HOS and finding the images, which I thought was more fun than just the standard HOS. In fact, I get a little tired of those games and I'm always looking for something different to play. I was only going to give this game 4 stars, because I thought the game was a little short, but I'm going to give it 5 because so many other people gave it a 1. I still can’t wait for the next MCF!
I recommend this game!
