Status : Online | If you like your more than average share of illogical puzzles, well then yes Tony Tough is great. Unfortunately, I like a small dose of logic injected into my adventure games. I still enjoyed the game for other reasons but since solving puzzles is the main reason to play these games, I wouldn't say it would make my top ten list of adv. games. Lucasarts shouldn't be worried yet. There were some good, inventive puzzles but once you got past a certain point in the game, logic seemed to have been tossed out the window. If you've managed to complete this game in the hard mode without sneaking a single hint you are A) Your brain is perfectly in-tune with the warped minds who designed these puzzles or B) You used the very time consuming method of solving puzzles by "using the everything on everything" method no matter how silly it may have seemed. If you chose B) I tip my cap for your incredible patience and will-power to finish the game. If you chose A) well, you might want to seek some help. I give Tony Tough a "B-" rating.

| Deleted User | The puzzle's are kind of illogical and I like Tony TOugh. I also like the humour. It was tough! I think the puzzle's are like those monkey island puzzles. It's irritating when I can't solve it. Makes me stuck and I think it'll be quite a while for me to finish it

Status : Online | Yep. the puzzles for the most part are "off the wall". But the game is fun to play, some of the dialogue is actually funny and it ran right out of the box without a single problem. That alone made me smile!

Status : Online | For those experiencing performance issues playing the game on windows XP do the following. R-click on the desktop icon for the game and go into properties. Under the compatibility tab select Win 95 or Win 98-ME. Don't bother with any other settings. Select OK and try running the game again. It made a huge difference for me.
