I never played <em>Gobliiins</em> games as I should've, but I was a huge <em>Woodruff and the Schnibble</em> fan. Anyway, thank you! I absolutely have to play this. (It certainly helps, too, that a series creator designed this one.) Neat! I never played Gobliiins games as I should’ve, but I was a huge Woodruff and the Schnibble fan.

And the translation is great! (It's French) But, no sprites. Why do sequels do this to us? 3D isn't always prettier. In fact, it's basically never prettier. Jenn—

Same thing happened to me with some King's Quest game, very frustrating. Of course any adventure game I ever got the full version of would never run past the opening sequence on any of my PC's.
