The music is great like jamaican wonder buds, the voice acting is also authentic to say the least, mon. In the grahical department everything still seems nice, even though nice might be a poor choice of words, looking into the black, empty sockets which are supposed to be eyes. It seems like every character in town sold his/her for some muddler soup. I guess it's an artistic thingy... so what's the problem with TJD? I tell you, it is the puzzels. The are easy and obvious for the most part, almost uninspired. Not to say that they didn't tickle my sense of humor here and there, but it was mostly for a brief moment. Also, I don't want to say that TJD is not good. It is, but if you love the old LucasArts games and their humor, like me, you will find this one just a bit dull. On the other hand, it doesn't have the same rate of confusing and often frustrating puzzels, like the games of the old days. All in all, give it a try... a free try that is, because you can download the whole game for free from the developers website in low definition... that is without voice acting, 3d renders and less music.
