For the C64 this game has probably the best all around graphics to my knowledge. That includes the actual playable mini-games and the still screenshots. Not only does "Three Stooges" have incredible graphics for it's day, it also has talking! I think I've mentioned that anything that talked in the 80's was considered a cut above in terms of technology. I think in 1983 Chrysler introduced EVA (Electronic Voice Alert) to some of their high end cars that gave something like 25 Speak and Spell voiced alerts about doors being open, or oil being low...anyhow. So back to The Stooges. This game is fun, you play the Stooges, and the point of the game is to make enough money to save the orphanage from the evil land lord. It's set up like a board game where you sort of spin the wheel and see what mini-game you're going to play. The cool mini-games include a pie fight, a soup eating game, a run down the street avoiding stuff, a trivia game, and a couple other cool things. "Three Three Stooges" is a good, straightforward, very fun game. It's intense graphics and "talking" does make it a three floppy disk endeavor, and you have to switch your disk (they call them reels in the game) kind of often, but it's worth it.
