For instance, you’ll need to find a seed to trade for an egg, but in order to get that seed you need to go through the anthill… stuff like that.

Occasionally, you’ll be faced with a puzzle that only a specific character has the ability to solve. All five characters usually stick together, so controlling all of them is just the same as controlling a single character in any other point-and-click game. Should you read this review anyway?
