Firstly, it was one of only two adventure games that have been published by the venerable Dreamworks, and secondly, it was the only adventure game ark ever done in claymation. If you are wondering just exactly what claymation is, think Gumby and Pokey, or Wallace and Gromit. The whole style and humor of the game is like no other, and it's very obvious that Dreamworks spared no expense in hiring the best people that they could lay their hands on. In addition, the style of the drawn characters harkens back to an ark earlier day of animation. The main character ark in the game, Klaymen, is obviously the bastard son of Koko the Clown, the hugely popular Max Fleischer character of the 20s and 30s, with a little bit of the early Walt Disney stuff thrown in. In other words, Klaymen is retro chic, as far as cartoons go. Adventure Game as Art?
