Synopsis
Tonetown! It's a totally radical dimension where the top tune is Tass by the Daglets, the top gear is Troppo-Wear, and the UltraTouch haircut is a DieCut by Chaz.
What are you doing there? Simple. Your favorite old guy, Gramps, has disappeared from his warm, cozy home dimension. He's stuck in Tonetown and it's up to you to figure a way to get him out.
That's tricky enough, but just to make things even more interesting, there's a character with green scales, dirty fur, and yellow fangs. His name is Franklin Snarl, and he's not half as nice as he looks. And if he gets you before you get Gramps, you won't look so great, either.
Along the way, you'll get lots of help from Ennio the Legend, who used to be Gramp's dog Spot, and you'll get lots of clues from some UltraTone friends, but the tough stuff is up to you.
So what's the deal? Are you Tass enough to go for it? Think it over. Because once you get to Tonetown, the only way out is to go all the way in.

Fun and creative game from the Berlyns, quite different from former productions, particularly on difficulty level, as this one is aimed at beginners. The interface is a blend of icon and command line similar to other Interplay adventures of the time, the visual and audio aspects are well designed, and there is enough going on to keep the game on easy gear without being condescending. Some softlocks are possible, but you have to do (or omit doing!) some pretty obvious things. So get with it, be a tass tone, and discover Tonetown on your own.
