Gambler & Metalcasket are spot on with their remarks above I play a lot of P&C games. The one thing that drives my crazy is when a game has too much back & forth for no reason. It drives me nuts! Next up on the "drives me nuts list" is carrying a zillion items that can be combined or something or never get used. Nonetheless I still play them & just chug along and usually enjoy completing the game. Bulb Boy is not that. Not even for a second. It's friggin delightful. I'm not finished yet but it's has refreshing puzzles & charm to boot. I almost passed this one up & so glad I didn't because it's got exactly what I'm looking for & what I hope more games provide to the genre.
