Limey Lizard – Who said all space janitors had to be human? – AGS

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

Remember the good ol’ days, when real games required pointing and clicking your mouse?  Well now those days are back.  With the various adventure game creators out there it’s now more accessible to most computer users to make games that rival commercial games of days past.

This is the first adventure I’m reviewing on my blog hopefully with many more to come.  The name of the game is Limey Lizard, Waste Wizard made by Shane Stevens with Adventure Game Studio.  It’s a fun, old fashioned point and click adventure game.  You step into the role of Limey Lizard, who happens to be a maintenence worker on the ship, “The Spicy Curmudgeon”, where your role happens to be… well… maintanence.  If there’s a leak in the waste system of the ship, Limey is always ready to lend a hand.  Well not really, see he’s kind of lazy, but heck who isn’t lazy these days!
