After this Kimmel suspension, and the senseless Stephanopolous settlement before it… I think I’m done with Disney. Likely not forever, but for a while. I have remarkably few warm feelings about the company they are now, or Bob Iger.
Disney is a company I’ve spent my entire life admiring.

Confirmed, that this is an extremely fun game and a good way to spend ~4 hours. (I like games of this length.) A fun video game for people who don't really like video games.

Last night, my GF and I played through @panic.com's Time Flies for our date night and we loved it!
I'm not much of a gamer, but this experience got me excited. The details, puzzles, music, and humor throughout the game are just so well done. Give it a go if you're looking for a fun puzzle game.
