Hmm not sure yet as i only downloaded the game to store it on my computer and tried a few minutes if it run properly. The game is old (1997) but is said to have good humor, and the fan made English translation to provide a quite professional quality.

The Next Big Thing is supposed to be the sequel. http://en.wikipedia....lywood_Monsters

Only cons i could mention as of now are the spanish voicing some could not understand (me for instance) and their system to download the game, quite annoying with some program to install first, FX interactive shop thing. Can't go wrong with free game anyway and only 546 MB on hard drive.

Can someone who's got this offer enlighten me about FXWebPlayer.

Do you need to be connected to the internet to play the game? Does it communicate with that site? I'm not keen on adding junk installers when they shouldn't be necessary.

You have to install it in order to download and install the game on your computer. Just tried and you can safely uninstall it once done with that. Start the game using Monsters.exe in the game folder, doesn't need any internet connection.

Thank you for the clarification, and does that mean that the game files themselves can be used on multiple PC's?

Welcome, i'm not sure and can't try to confirm having only a desktop PC but chances are the game has no DRM so you might just copy the install folder to play it on another computer. Or just sign in another account during the offer to get it on that other PC.

    @Xdqwerty, Dunno if you'll read this but I finished reading the story, I love the humor lol, and the idea of an incompetent hero with a smart kid is really particular, haven't seen it around much. Their dynamic kinda reminds me of Manzai (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzai) humor, pretty cool
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    A small flathead screwdriver that just fits in the center unscrews triwing screws with ease

  • lwiz @ lwiz:
    Triwings are often included in phone/console repair screwdriver sets as well - those available in hardware stores. Have to read what's included carefully. Got one myself without realising it first. Usually those with lots of separate bits, torx, phillips etc.

    Its been over a year he's been trying to open his 3DS, if you can't even open it, you should not be messing with anything inside, you only gonna make things worse. Find someone to repair it, or sell it as broken.
