The Three Stooges

The Three Stooges description

Background.

The Three Stooges is famous in the USA a series of short Comedy films that came out in cinemas in the first half of the last century. All these films had one common idea - three unlucky stooges looking for (and find) adventures on their head. Getting into different kind of situation, they try to solve their problems in the most comical ways. As toppings you used the time-tested banana torty humor, although witty dialogues, too, was the place.

The composition of the Three Stooges repeatedly varied, but the most memorable was the composition of 1932-1946 gg., in which actor Harry Moses of Horwitz (as MoE Howard), Jerome Lester Horwitz (as curly Howard) and Louis Feinberg (as Larry fine).

Fame came to him during his lifetime. And now short films with the participation of the Three Stooges are considered classics of American Comedy.

In 1983, Three of Klutz got its own star on the Hollywood walk of Fame.

In 1987, Cinemaware's office released a computer game “The Three Stooges”.

And now - the game itself.

Plot the plot of the game is that once walked on a country road three of our hero haircut "under the pot" Mo, curly, Larry and Curley Gorodovoy. Were they, therefore, somewhere about their business, but walking next to the old children's shelter, they noticed the weeping old lady sitting on the porch at the door of the shelter. They told of their sadness: greedy, vile and just evil-presely, the banker demanded that the shelter $ 5,000 for rent. If in 30 days, this impressive sum will not be collected, the banker will select an orphanage and the children remain on the street.

Not very long after this, our heroes decided to help the poor old lady and kids promising that they jump out of his pants, but I think these required five tons of tanks! Don't know, would three trouble-maker to help a poor old widow woman if next to her was not a pretty three unmarried daughters... well, let's leave it on their conscience.

Now our heroes are full of forces and ready to turn the whole world for shelter, the unfortunate widow and her lonely daughter. But how to earn 5000 dollars, if you have in mind just a couple of convolutions, and to help you can only two friends who are no smarter than you? But, fortunately for our trio, they live in the United States of America - the land of opportunity, where any hardworking person can earn money regardless of just how narrow frontal lobes. Time is Money - this motto will become a life credo of our heroes in the next 30 days.

First day of work began. And Mo as the most brainy, took over the reading of section "jobs" in a local newspaper. Method accident the hand cursor indicates a particular way of earnings. At the right moment you must quickly press the button SPACE, and one of the six options will be chosen. Beware of the button with the image of a banker - premature meeting with this spineless personality does not Bode well. Also, try not to "touch" mousetraps - touching one of them deprives your hand-cursor of one finger. It is not difficult to guess, you have the right to make a mistake more than five times. If you remain without fingers, the game will end prematurely.

So, where to go for our trio in search of work? You can get to work as waiters on a secular reception and use the cakes to make it a third world war. You can try to dispute to hold 8 rounds in the ring against a heavyweight. For this case best suited stubborn curly. You can race karts at a local hospital, along the way picking up off the floor, discarded medicines, syringes, and ship - all in the name of Hippocrates! All for the good of the patient! You can try to wander around the city in search of "easy" money and come across a discarded wallet, to overflowing full of crisp bills. And so on and so forth...

Even for the wasted day (the button where MoE pokes fingers in eyes curly) Cinemaware came up with a mini-game - coming to a bare brick wall, MoE realizes that the day was wasted, and anger begins to distribute cuffs, Larry and curly. Not without our help, of course. It would seem, what reason can be these assault? It turns out that there is a reason, and even what! If Mo will kick it in the ass, Larry and curly, in the future when selecting a new source of income hand the cursor will move much slower than before. But there is a downside: if Larry and Curley will successfully Dodge the slaps Mo and even to answer him with the same cuffs, then a hand cursor will be more quickly and dramatically to move the menu selection operation, greatly complicating further the passing game. It only remains to remove before Cinemaware hat for the way they properly implemented a jokes movie The Three Stooges.

Summary. In General, the game leaves a very pleasant impression. Mini-games are interesting and unique. The game has a no plot and even sociable three main characters. Graphics are old, but cute. In short, it's never boring.

The Three Stooges is a game for a couple of evenings, which can bring pleasure even to those who do neither sleep nor spirit did not hear about this comedic trio.
