This is by far the greatest point &amp; click game LucasArts ever made (aside from Monkey Island 4, the line: &quot;You've befouled my platypus&quot; is priceless)<BR>The plot of the game is simple, you control freelance police Sam (a dog in a suit) and his psychotic partner Max, an adorable yet evil bunny who reminds me of that evil rabbit from Monty Python. <BR>Anyway, the point of the story is that a traveling carnival renowned for it's freak show is missing its 2 star attractions: Bruno, the frozenest bigfoot &amp; Trixie: the giraffe-necked girl from Scranton (don't ask). I won't get into details, but you visit strange locales around the USA, meet strange people, animals, bigfoots, ect... solve puzzles using items to get other items, things like that.<BR>If you've played any of LucasArts' other point &amp; click, Monkey Island style &quot;adventure&quot; games, you'll love it. Even if you haven't, the strange cartoony animation and funny-ass one-liners. I also recommend Blazing Dragons for the PSX, since the two games play identically, right down to the interface. Oh, and before I forget... ALL HAIL OUR LORD AND MASTER, THE ALL-MIGHTY SQUIGGLY FISH! HE IS YOUR SALVATION!
