Playtoons 1: Uncle Archiblad

Post by YoshiWii1 »

Does anyone remember this game? I do. There was a Kid who narrated the story and his friend Ben were at their Uncle Archibald's house. They looked on his computer and found a monster named Ogre Kringle who eats kids with chocolate sauce. They get a formula and there is this explosion. The monsters come into reality! The lights go out and they walk into the Kitchen to find candles but guess who is there in the fridge? Ogre Kringle! He complains that he can't find his sauce and when he does he tries to eat the kids with it. But they zip him with a cord! This is a pretty scary kids game and is a little violent for a K-A rating

Actually, no, it's not officially supported (yet).
Only the earlier Bambou game, which might qualify as part of the Playtoons series, is supported.

The other parts are not supported and don't even fully work as of now. You can go through the stories, but those are still a bit glitchy; the playground bits are completely non-functional.

They are a valid future target for the gob engine in ScummVM, though.
