He DOES sound kinda squeaky, doesn't he? O. o I'm assuming it has to do with how his voice files were compressed for the game, but. .. Also, yes, what the hell is a HOT TUB TIME MACHINE doing in an EDUTAINMENT GAME? It just -- that is the WEIRDEST excuse for getting the kid involved in the action that I could think of. There was nothing else they could modify with the time travel engine? I mean, they were already apparently ripping off other games, AND they had Doc Brown -- why not go whole hog and get a car? I know underage driving is not good either, but at least makes a SKOOSH more sense. ..

Only Christopher Lloyd would do things like this, and that is why he is christopher lloyd, as no matter the era, if he's in it, you know your gonna be in for something bizarre, fun and interesting lol As only him could go from his character on Taxi, To Doc Brown, to clue, to Kruge from star trek 3, kinda like a 1980's version of Nick Cage really, except far more liked for it lol
although the difference is Lloyd is an actor, Nick Cage is just Nick Cage lol

Before you mentioned it in the video, I had it in mind to comment about The Fool's Errand! I seem to recall seeing both the -phrase scramble- and -word scramble- minigames there. The former I didn't much like--I remember writing a program to solve the things for me--but the latter could be fun, I think. -_-
I'd forgotten just how much overlap there was, however! (Indeed, I'd misattributed the card-game to another puzzle-game, -Heaven and Earth-/; )

Good reference to A Fool's Errand and how ah, eerily similar the mini game elements seem to be. Also strange how the silly time travel element in this game appears to be the genesis for the Hot Tub Time Machine film.
Lastly, if I were the developers I'd have felt jipped by my Christopher Lloyd voice over investment. While him not sounding himself could be attributed to bad audio mixing, he seems to be mailing in everything he says.

Hm. I missed hearing about this game company back in the day. I noticed a couple of mistakes in the game. At 9: 56 the text shown was -The Chinese had already- but Lloyd read it as -already had-. At 10: 58 the text had some problems with the wording as it had -the time from the when the- and -formed to 600 million years-.

Thank you so much for making this video! My parents got me this game when I was 6 or 7 years old. Unfortunately I couldn't get it to work on our PC for whatever reason. So I would just read the manual, play with the CD and admire the lovely boxart. I always wondered how this game actually played. This was a real treat!

Whenever I saw the -Don't play track 1 on CD-Players--label in these days, of course the first thing I did was to put it in my CD-Player and press play. Never had any damage apart from some ugly noises coming out of my speakers. Why such a warning? Has anybody out there experienced some real damage out of it?

-Another- hot tub time machine? I thought Harvey Birdman came up with the idea and then that movie copied it. But now I'm learning this predates both of those?
That means multiple people at different times had the same terrible idea for this premise and they all said, -yes, let's go with that. -

Is it me or does Chris Lloyd sound a bit up-pitched, like 1/3rd of a chipmunk? Come to think of it, that might even be not the real Chris Lloyd after all. I mean, we never -see- him in glorious full video motion. I can-t help but feel I-ve been ripped off. I-m sure you're feeling something similar.

If the items mentioned by the protagonists were made to never exist then how did they know things were disappearing and what those items were supposed to be called? If the items were made to never exist then wouldn't that also mean that people wouldn't have memories of them?
