About Day of the Tentacle Remastered
✦ AI summary
Travel through time with three unlikely heroes to stop a maniacal purple tentacle from conquering the world in this mind-bending adventure from LucasArts. This remastered classic features stunning hand-drawn high-resolution artwork, restored audio, and developer commentary from the original team that created this beloved cult puzzle adventure.
Dr. Fred’s mutated purple tentacle is about to take over the world, and only you can stop him!
Originally released by LucasArts in 1993 as a sequel to Ron Gilbert’s ground breaking Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle is a mind-bending, time travel, cartoon puzzle adventure game in which three unlikely friends work together to prevent an evil mutated purple tentacle from taking over the world!
Now, over twenty years later, Day of the Tentacle is back in a remastered edition that features all new hand-drawn, high resolution artwork, with remastered audio, music and sound effects (which the original 90s marketing blurb described as ‘zany!’).
Players are able to switch back and forth between classic and remastered modes, and mix and match audio, graphics and user interface to their heart’s desire. We’ve also included a concept art browser, and recorded a commentary track with the game’s original creators Tim Schafer, Dave Grossman, Larry Ahern, Peter Chan, Peter McConnell and Clint Bajakian.
Day of the Tentacle was Tim Schafer’s first game as co-project lead, and a much beloved cult classic! This special edition has been lovingly restored and remade with the care and attention that can only come from involving the game's original creators.

Very fun classic point & click game. The puzzles are fun, the writing and story is really silly in a good way, and it has it's charm with it's visual style. The game also has great at hinting at solutions to puzzles without ever giving it away straight away. It strikes an amazing balance between silly puzzle solutions and actually giving the player enough to be able to figure it out. The playthrough took me about 8 hours I think, and I ended up looking up the solution to only 2 puzzle steps (after not finding it myself for 30 minutes), which really speaks for the game in my opinion. So if you like classic point & click adventures, this is 100% a good recommendation.
Great classic point&click game. Worthy followup of maniac mansion. Great art and humor.
old fun point and click game
It's Day of the Tentacle. It's old school LucasFilm Games. It's Tim Schaffer. And it is very nicely remastered. What else is there to say?
It's a classic for a reason. Adventure game gold! OH NO MY THTAMP COLLETHCTION
Really fun game, I love the wacky-ness and the characters and the setting! It looks amazing too, I really appreciate how true they seemed to have stuck to the OG game while making it nicer looking AND giving you the option for the original style! Don't be afraid to occasionally look up a hint guide, I got stuck a few times purely because I didn't menu correctly even though i knew the solution (theres alot of ways you can interact with objects in this game!)
