Story:Tonic Trouble is a 3D platforming video game by Ubisoft Montreal. The story follows the main character, Ed, after a magic potion spills on the Earth and causes vegetables to become living killers. The game was received poorly; critics cite poor controls, a wordy exposition, and sloppy graphics (on the N64 version). The N64 version of the game is a port of the PC version with noticeable differences, such as a substantially different opening due to the lack of processing power needed to render cutscenes, and different music in certain places. The game is often compared to another game published by Ubisoft called Rayman 2: The Great Escape, because both are 3D platformers, both have main characters of a similar design (hands and feet without arms or legs), and both were released around the same time.Show more

This game rules. Often seen as an 'inferior Rayman 2', it's actually a very nice little platformer that feels like a blend of Rayman 1 and 2's vibes, but with more focus on wacky puzzles. Definitely worth preserving!

A madcap adventure that, truth be told, I was never even able to finish! I was stuck for so long on the sledding, then stuck for so long in the Vegetable HQ, and then found this perfect groove that saw kid me making it as far as the final world. Before once again getting stuck, and foolishly loaning the game to a friend. My copy is gone forever, and sure wouldn't play on a new PC anyway. The world needs to remember this game. It's bonkers and sticks with you even if you never saw the end credits.

Tonic Trouble is truly a fascinating game! It's a fun and simple platformer with TONS of charm. I love the characters, the world and the story.(Especially the PC version!) More people should check out this game. Especially if you're a Rayman fan!
While I may not be as familiar with Tonic Trouble as I am with Rayman, I believe this underrated gem deserves to be played by more people and it would be great to experience this classic that basically acted more or less as the blueprint for Rayman 2.

Loved this game, I'd sure like to get it onto my gog shelf! It's like more wacky, self aware Rayman 2. And R2 is my favourite game of all time, so what's not to like in Tonic Trouble?

Fable: The Lost Chapters
Fable: The Lost ChaptersFable was expanded and rereleased as Fable: The Lost Chapters for Xbox and Windows PC platforms in September 2005. The game was later ported to Mac OS X by Robosoft Technologies and published by Feral Interactive on 31 March 2008. The Lost Chapters features all the content found in the original Fable, as well as additional new content such as new monsters, weapons, alignment based spells, items, armour, towns, buildings, and expressions, as well as the ability to give children objects. The story receives further augmentation in the form of nine new areas and sixteen additional quests. Characters such as Briar Rose and Scythe, who played only minor roles in the original game, are now given more importance and are included in certain main and side quests. Other character-based augmentations include the voice of the antagonist, Jack of Blades, sounding deeper, harsher and more demonic, and the ability to uncover (and resolve) the murder mystery of Lady Grey's sister. The updated edition of the game also applied fixes for certain glitches, such as the "dig glitch," in which the protagonist would move backward each time he used the shovel, pushing him through solid objects and sometimes trapping him.
