Full Throttle Remastered

One of the best Lucasarts games ever! If you were a fan of the genre of adventure games back in the day, this has changed everything. Voice acting, the jokes, the plot, everything is great about this game.

One of my favorites of all times.

CAN'T EVEN PLAY IT.
I can get passed the intro cutscene and THAT'S IT.

The game gets stuck on a burning skull loading screen and never progresses.
Really upsetting as the original game is really fun.

Easily one of the best point and click adventure games ever made. The story and dialogue are so good it could be a movie. Although, compared to other Lucas Arts Adventure games, the puzzles are not top of the line, but still very good. 9/10

I'm not putting my lips on that

Full Throttle Remastered is a true classic, a true classic with a fresh coat of paint that helps it retain its nostalgic charm and humour.

good flashback

A very well-made remaster of one of the most iconic Point-and-Click adventures! Sadly I won't be able to finish the game as the driving segments didn't age really well and were too difficult/wonky for me.

The new art fits the game very nicely and I can recommend this game to every fan of the genre (who has a higher frustration tolerance than me when it comes to the non-point-and-click-parts).

Неплохой ремастер культового квеста из 90-х про байкера Бена. Квесты ЛукасАртса (да, они выпускали игры не только по Звездным Войнам) вообще выделяется своей ламповостью и атмосферой. Таких игр сейчас не выпускают.

A true classic, still great.

Fantastic cartoon-æsthetic single-player game, set in a dystopian future, and the gameplay is very cerebral, ie. makes you think about what to do next. One of the better parts about this experience is that you're not penalised for making the wrong choice - it lets you do it again until you get it right, and then you move on.
So many flashbacks of playing this game on PC back in 1994 when it launched, and the Steam variant is no different.. still hits in the feels. This game got incredible reviews and ratings at a time when a breakthrough game like this was very hard to come by. LucasArts hit this one out of the park, and the soundtrack is killer too. I still love coming back and re-playing it all these years later, and that's the X-factor that a lot of games these days are missing.

Love the game, not the crashes.

Game crashes a lot. =(

Short, sweet and with fun little bonuses (the concept art is amazing).

A great update to a classic PnC

Full Throttle is a classic point-and-click adventure from LucasArts that blends an intriguing narrative, engaging puzzles, and stunning cinematography. The game’s visual storytelling stands out, with beautifully crafted animated cut-scenes and a solid atmosphere that immerses you into its post-apocalyptic world. The soundtrack, led by the legendary The Gone Jackals, also deserves a mention for setting the tone.

The puzzles are interesting, but the game has aged somewhat. You’ll often find yourself in tableaux where only one or two elements are interactive, which, while iconic for its time, can feel a bit simplistic by today's standards. Despite these quirks, it’s easy to see why Full Throttle has left a lasting mark on the genre.

While the remastered version offers modernised visuals, I found myself preferring the original version, as I am fond of pixel art. Thankfully, switching between versions is a breeze—simply hit F1, and you’re back in the '90s.

On the short side, as other reviewers have pointed out, the game’s relatively brief runtime means you won’t be lost in its world for too long. It’s still a fun experience, but one that leaves you wanting just a bit more.

As much as I admire Full Throttle, I have to say that it’s not quite as enduring as the studio;s other entries like Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle, or Grim Fandango (my personal favourite). Those games still have a deeper impact on me. However, Full Throttle is still a solid entry in the genre that adventure game fans will want to experience, if only to respect the legacy it has built.

Played on Linux. One thing that this game will not throttle is your PC: no crashes to report, apart from those on the asphalt.

Ride on my friends....

hell yeah

Full Throttle is a classic that still holds up. It’s a pretty short game and some of the puzzles can be a bit confusing. The remastered version looks amazing, too. If you’re into point-and-click games or just want a unique, fun adventure, this is a must-play.

I picked it up for pennies in the sale as well so cannot complain at that either.

If you've played the original in the 90's, this will really bring you back, especially with the option to use "classic" graphic style.
I could almost hear the Pentuim cpu whirring away. Classic point and click that will take mere hours to finish,
There was 1 segment that consistently crashed the game. The solution was running the game out of full screen and skipping the cutscene. Dirtbag Vultures.
If you've never played Full Throttle before, try it and see the wonderful mechanics that haven't aged in a day.

Nothing can beat Secret of Monkey Island, but this came pretty close.

Perfect game

Its simple, fun and more laid back.

Pretty sad, I was really excited about playing the game again after such a long time, but it seems that this game has specific problems on AMD CPU and GPU (I have Ryzen 5 7500F and Radeon RX 6800). It constantly crashes already at the start and also during the game. Setting it on classic and windowed mode helped it, or skipping whole cutscenes, but now I am at the Vultures hideout and theres a final crash i can´t get past. I also looked for further help along the internet but I couldn´t find a solution. I tried to get a refund for the game, writing my whole experience but Steam only says that they won´t give a refund because i played it for more than 2 hours. Basically that rule makes sense, but I just can´t finish the game anymore. Poor decision from Steam in my eyes..

So if you got AMD hardware you should think twice if you want to take the risk.

Blast from the past! I played this when it originally came out 30 years ago. Love that this got a remaster and re-release.

Point-and-click puzzle adventures were pretty popular at the time this was originally released, but this one beat them all. With its humor, vehicle mode, and soundtrack, this one was a great hit at the time. So excited to be able to play it again!

It`s one of these games that won`t launch. Even though you have a modern PC with windows 11 and everything working. You`re still at risk of the game not even launching and then you get a bunch of What ifs and Could Give Tries on This Or That so you Might get it running eventually. Time and energy wasted instead of relaxing. I bought this but I`m gonna end up downloading a torrent somewhere with a working version. Thumbs down.

bring back memories, this was one of the first games i had on CD

Masterpiece

I thank The Lord each day for the apocalypse! :)

Overall a good game. Some small bugs and no clear direction on what i am even supposed to do at times but it was fun nonetheless.

Point and click classic

Full throttle is a a hark back to my childhood, where I have fond memories of visiting my dad's quirky and interesting university mates who had cool and cutting-edge computer setups in the early nineties. I remember sitting there in front of a huge CRT playing Full Throttle with a trackball mouse whilst my dad laughed at all the witty one-liners utterly in awe. Of course, we bought our own copy not long after, which I still have to this day.

I come back to Full Throttle often. It's like an easy-listening movie with some puzzles for you to solve. If you're playing for the first time some of the puzzles can take a lot of trial and error, however it's a nice easy-going game where you're never punished. The story has a wit and attitude that I'll never tire of, which I find is missing from many modern titles.

This remaster packages the game into a modern accessible title that integrates with Steam nicely including Achievements and Trading Cards. The updated art is done well; it almost feels like it was always like that until you flick back to the original version(F1 key). It doesn't detract from the mood and atmosphere of the original game, with many assets remaining mostly the same.

The opening sequence, along with a lot of the one-liners, will be etched in my brain for the rest of my lifetime. If you've never played Full Throttle, I highly recommend it just for those alone.

Typically regarded as one of the lesser games of the classical LucasArts point- and click era, the Remaster does a good job of fixing some of the flaws. But some design problems still are left, because fixing them would have meant doting a remake instead of a remaster.
Voice acting and music is good, especially for its time and technical aspects have been faithfully updated without losing he style of the original.
Still, it's a pretty short game and the only difficulty stems from some weid design decisions, like hiding an exit to a different screen in a place, nobody is expecting to to look for, because this location completely contradicts the established layout of the screens. (I am looking at you, magnet crane). So even if you now exactly, what the solution to a problem should be, you miht be fighting against the game to actually make it happen.

Recommended when on sale, but not full price. It's way to short for that.

Great game, easy gameplay, and fun puzzles.
I liked it when it released the first time and was stoked to find it on here. Looked for it on a whim, did a great job remastering it.

I've enjoyed almost every Lucasarts game but this ain't it.

Some of the more interactive puzzles are a nightmare with unresponsive controls and weird physics. The Scumm engine was not made for these types of puzzles.

The remastered art is drab. Everything looks blotchy and uninteresting.

World-building is non-existent as the game drops you into one-and-done zones constantly.

when this released back in the day i think it was my first point and click adventure game ever. the cast the story, the fun puzzles....the remaster is perfect! this game is awesome and I love it to this day! one of my all time favorite games that realy made point and click adventures fun! i wish we could have gotten more of this type of game. (Grimm Fandango , Curse of monkey island)

Mostly good game. The story is good. Slightly unclear on what to do at times.

Cryptic as hell... just like it should be.

I never _got_ Full Throttle. Ever since I was young I wanted to love it. I devoured the promo material from back then, always held the box in store with great reverance, but ended up buying Loom (because it was even more enticing AND way way cheaper at that point).

What a saving grace buying Loom was.

Now don't get me wrong. Full Throttle has amazing graphics and the remaster is made with immense amounts of taste. It had very VERY good voice acting and sometimes the mood was great too.

So I tried and tried between 1999 and this day. Always bounced off because of the fuc... not so fun combat. Then on steam deck today I decided to finish the game, I knew it'd be minutes long anyway.

And here we are. What a over hyped pile of whatever. So many good things stomped under a bikers boot of minigames and just... VOID of stuff to do and see.

IN SHORT:

Good:
- Graphics
- Voice Acting
- That one puzzle with bunnies
- Characters (all three of them)

Bad:
- I don't even usually harp on length of a game but remove the padding minigames and... wow.
- Puzzles (and lack of them. Especially the timed climax bonanza)
- Complete lack of interesting environments

Trust me. it's better in screenshots and short clips from youtube, it does not respect your time, even for the 2 hours it takes to beat when taking it slow. (5h playtime is because I had tried this multiple times before)

Sidenote: I missed the part where Mo got angry at Ben. Was it EVER explained.

Always fun to relive the old classics

I've played this game twice before many years ago, and I bought it on Steam because I absolutely love Full Throttle and want to support the creators. I really want more people to discover this gem! I happily played through it a third time, and I like switching to the old graphics version—though the remaster is great too. The music and voice acting are simply outstanding. Huge thanks to the developers. This is a timeless classic👾

The game has aged well, great dialogues, a simple but interesting story, and a great soundtrack. If you missed the original, this remaster is the one to get into.

This was one of my favorite games as a kid, hell, even now. The bonding of the characters is the cool part.

BIG CAVEAT: While this is a classic Lucas Arts point-and-click game, and a great remaster, it's not really for everyone. It's very niche, very subcultural, and not really what someone who got to be a fan of the famous Lucas Arts comedy titles even enjoys. Because, you know... It's a biker game.

So I can't say I really "recommend" it, so much as that there's nothing terribly wrong with it other than it being niche. Like, it's moreso something that might interest a fan of Brütal Legend than a fan of Monkey Island, Sam & Max or Day of the Tentacle.

A classic. Great remake.
Price might be a bit steep for the short game time, but I actually remembered surprisingly much from when I was a pre-teen and played it through the first time (almost 30 years ago, yikes), which probably shortened the game time some.
But then again it's not that hard to begin with. You only have a few things going on at a time so it's pretty linear.

Great art. Great sound and music. Ok story, not deep.
It's a short, sweet ride :)

Get it on a sale and it's totally worth a playthrough.

7/10
