The Sega CD/Mega-CD port of this masterpiece by Ron Gilbert has one big flaw (not related to the game): the screen is so DARK THAT YOU LITERALLY CAN’T SEE WHAT’S GOING ON.
It turns out that the game uses the add-on’s “Shadow Mode” as default, which has been disabled in this patch. Now you can enjoy the game the way it should have been.
