You are really just... clicking on objects but i really really enjoyed that game i didn't get a chance to play scratches and uh he was on this podcast i interviewed him a few years ago and he spoke a little bit about difficulties you know with the ip right now for scratches that uh you can't buy it anywhere at the moment um but uh it it has got some really good reviews people consider it to be a classic um in the vein of, you know, Darkfall as well.
