All about game Full Throttle
Full Throttle is a classic point-and-click adventure game developed and published by LucasArts, released in 1995. It was designed by Tim Schafer and features the voices of Roy Conrad and Mark Hamill as main characters Ben Throttle (Hamill) and Maureen Corley (Conrad). Full Throttle follows the story of Ben, leader of the biker gang “The Polecats” as they take on a powerful industrialist who has framed them for murder. The game uses the SCUMM engine to create an immersive experience filled with puzzles, action sequences, dialogues choices that affect how the story progresses.
Gameplay wise it still holds up even today. Players control Ben through various scenes using their mouse to move around environments or clicking on objects to interact with them in order to progress further into the storyline. Each scene also contains optional conversations with NPCs which help flesh out more details about what's going on in this world such as hints at secrets or background information about characters you meet along your journey. In addition there are numerous puzzle sections where players must use items from their inventory or combine multiple objects together in order to solve certain challenges blocking their way forward.
For fans of classic point-and-click adventures Full Throttle is one title that should not be missed out despite its age – it remains timelessly enjoyable thanks to its fantastic writing and memorable cast of misfits encountered throughout our hero’s quest for justice against those who wronged him so cruelly. It’s also one of few titles featuring voice acting from both Mark Hamill and Roy Conrad making it even more special for fanatics like myself who have followed these actors ever since Star Wars first hit cinemas back in 1977!
