Apparently pointing and clicking leaves a lot of room for funny bits.
But 2006’s Psychonauts is no point-and-click adventure. It’s a platform odyssey through the fractured minds of the campers and counselors of a summer camp for psychic children. Children like Razputin, the game’s hero, voiced by Richard Steven Horvitz of Invader Zim fame. Or Raz’s girlfriend Lili, who get excited by the strangest things.
The entire game is filled with side-splitting humor, courtesy of both Schafer and Eric Wolpaw, half of the beloved gaming commentary site Old Man Murray, who later went on to write the dialog for Portal and Portal 2
But those are games for another week. Now pucker up!
