    Dr. Muto's creativity, long length, and variety make it a good effort. [Jan 2003, p.78]

    An excellent sense of humour that manages to make the older gamer chuckle without offending the kiddies.

    If it were not for the horrible camera, Dr. Muto would be one of my favorite games of the year.
