The protagonist, an old-school biker called Ben, finds himself caught up in events relating to an attempt to take over the last motorcycle manufacturer in America. In a near future version of California they battle against the encroaching advancement of technology and corporate greed. The story revolves around a gang of bikers known as the Polecats. While retaining some of the humour found in previous games, the game took a darker turn in its plotline and setting. Finally, there was a licenced soundtrack written specially for the game by rock band The Gone Jackals. The game was fully voiced, featuring professional voice actors. A new contextual pie menu, through which interactions with objects and characters were controlled, replaced the older menu and inventory interface. Featuring animated full motion video and action sequences, it set out to out to be the first of the next-generation of adventure games. Their eleventh adventure game, Full Throttle, showed noticeable changes from previous releases. The game really excels in picking old-school biker music by the Gone Jackals.By the time of Full Throttle’s release LucasArts had become the leading developer in the point-and-click adventure game genre. You can toggle back to the old version for nostalgia. This is a great mixture of action and puzzler and the new remaster makes the graphics much smoother for HD screens.
You’re an ass-kicking outlaw, fighting with chains against other bikers in a Mad-Max style rampage, yet there’s also a huge amount of dry wit and clever humour, as you must use your mind to progress. Bikers, battles and big laughsįull Throttle Remastered follows the adventures of Ben Throttle, a biker gang leader in a future setting where bikes are on the out and the last manufacturer now wants to produce (gasp) RVs and sedans instead.
Full Throttle Remastered is a chance to revisit that road-hogging biker adventure and let a new generation enjoy it too. Full Throttle is one of those games and while it didn’t have as many fans as the well-known Monkey Island games, it still has a very dedicated cult following. There was an entire generation of point and click adventures, which were a little ugly and quite basic, but had a huge amount of spirit, atmosphere, humour and wit.
