Toonstruck is a point-and-click adventure in the style of Monkey Island.

Replay Value: Same story, same jokes but still funny during replay. Sound: Sound effects and music are fitting for a cartoon-like world. Graphics: Great combination: live action and animation. ToonStruck is definitely worth the price of admission. Not only is this game fun and challenging but it is also an engaging movie-cartoon with a rich storyline and entertaining characters. Some are easier to solve while some are so bizarre they'll require a truly twisted mind to solve. The puzzles are blended perfectly with gameplay and have great balance. Because of his wacky humor and acting style, he was an obvious choice for the role.

Additionally, all of the acting and vocal talents are great, especially Christopher Lloyd. The animation in ToonStruck is top-notch and the story is excellent (complete with a surprise twist that is absolutely hilarious). Leather-bound (pun intended) cattle in an S&M barn, a cross-dressing Care-Crow and a psychotic, helium-sniffing clown are just a few of the strange and silly characters.

Though it seems more along the lines of a kid-oriented game, the incredibly talented writers have written in some characters that will crack up the adults (some, actually, that should only be viewed by adults). In fact, from the very first screen of ToonStruck, the jokes and wisecracks are funny and rarely let up throughout the entire adventure. The way these two characters interact is enough to justify playing the game. As Blanc, you, upon arriving, are greeted by one of your own creations named Flux Wildly, a wise cracking cartoon character who tags along on your journey and lends a hand from time to time. While he is working late one night, Drew gets zapped into his own creation, the cutesy, seemingly happy world of Cutopia.

The game ToonStruck uses this combination to tell the story of Drew Blanc, (coincidentally Christopher Lloyd from Roger Rabbit), an overworked cartoonist in need of a vacation. When the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit? came out, people were amazed at how well live action and animation could be combined.
