Justin Wack
and the Big Time Hack is a new Point ‘n’ Click adventure developed by Warm
Kitten, with a brand-new Kickstarter, and they need your help. Justin Wack is a
game that harks back to its classic retro point and click adventure roots of
Monkey Island, Manic Mansion and Broken Sword.
Justin Wack and the Big Time Hack’ is a story about people being out of their element, about falling in and out of love and of course aggressively particular time agents trying to find unauthorised time travellers. The story starts with our titular hero Justin Wack, generally bumming around at work, pining over his ex-girlfriend Julie when a green wibbly-wobbly portal appears in front of him. Justin Steps through this portal, and a caveman from a much earlier time steps through as well. This unprecedented time-swap catches the attention of some time agents from the future.
This leaves our characters out of place”¦
Justin Wants to get back to his own time, and

Julie, although moved on with her life, she

Kloot, the out of time Caveman, is lapping up

simpler.
