ADJUSTED SCORE: This game was borderline B-/C+. Decided with the score of C+ instead, given it is a game on par with other adventure games in the C+ scoring range (i.e. Shadow of the Comet, Adventures of Maddog Williams).

A fun, albeit short, adventure game developed by a single person -- David Gray. The quirky (and admittedly ugly) color choices and patterns for the graphics somehow manage to give this title charm. The story is silly but grounded just for the player to care about Hugo and want him to be reunited with his girlfriend.

By no means is this the best adventure game ever made, but it's worth the low price on GOG.
