This game is ridiculous in the way only Shiny can produce. It will also make you scream at your keyboard because of the underwater levels. Boy are they hard.

I used to love the cartoon from the 90s based on this game.

Yeah. We had a Cd-Rom drive for that with the 7th Guest. The first console we had was a NES when the Snes was already out. The 2nd console was a Ps2 near the end of its lifespan. So a PC was all I had for the longest time. I was so envious of everyone with a dedicated gamebox.
