This game is a traditional and humorous adventure game with item based puzzles. To solve them the player needs to examine his surroundings, take everything he finds and use items with other items. There are also numerous conversations which are held with multiple choice dialogues. The game also features a help function which marks every item the player can interact with. These interactions are similar to The Curse of Monkey Island: the player needs to hold the left mouse button to bring up a coin. On this he chooses one of three symbols (eye, hand or mouth) to perform the associated action. During the course of the game the player has to solve a few mini games, e.g. a Happy Families variation or chicken roulette.
