Un gran juego, un clasico que necesita su segunda parte. Ojala algun dia sea posible. Saludos desde Argentina!
This is still such an amazing game.
I’ve just finished playing thru it on the steam scumm version. Would love to see this reincarnated or continued.
Would love to help in any way possible. Running a small software development company in Sweden and would love to help if I can.
I’d first heard of Toonstruck through YouTube, since though I’m an Autistic 90s kid who loves computers and adventure games, it flew under the radar.
Thanks to GOG.com, I played and finished it just last week, and I agree with many that it deserves a follow-up considering what got cut in development.
Considering what the animation market is today, and with the passing of Christopher Lloyd, a return to 2D Animation would be essential for this sequel, although a CGI part of the toon world would fit that.
PS: Anyone heard of Stay Tooned? It came out in the exact same year, but it’s actually even darker than Toonstruck, believe it or not.
I just saw an announcement of the new broken sword game which immediately got me reminiscing about my childhood. There was a time where my sister showed me all these games. And of course toonstruck came to mind.
I am currently 26 years old and study visual computing and design. Gradually, I am learning about all these projects by people who have literally shaped my childhood. Suddenly, they are not just memories of the joy of video games but tangible pieces of history.
Through my studies, I am increasingly getting in touch with this industry, and somehow, it feels surreal. I would absolutely love to be involved in the development and contribute as an aspiring CG artist wherever I can.
I grew up with point and click adventures. And Toonstruck was among my favourites.
I’ve already gotten Monkey Island games, and would love to havea remaster and a squel to Toonstruck.
Even though the old game looks terrible this day of age, it is still fun to play.
I revist my old point and click games atleast once a year.
I just finished Discworld again, and DOTT. So I guess Toonstruck is next 😀
I would love to help anyway I can, but other thant writing here and buying the games. IDK what I can do 🙂
Please Continue remaster this old jewel <3
I’ve played this game a million times as a kid and just finished a playthrough. Like always when I finish this I look for toonstruck 2 news, knowing fully well that there is nothing before checking. I Just wanted to say that this website gave me a smile. The title animation is amazing.
Hello from Scotland!
I have been playing this game ever since I was in my teens. It is one of my best childhood memories of any game I have ever played. I have just finished playing it again on Steam at the age of 36 and it never gets old! It would be absolutely amazing to see it remastered and play the second part. Thank you for all that you are doing and I will support in any way that I can!!

Hey there, from Canada!
Gotta say, Toonstruck was a big part of my gaming childhood. I loved everything about it – the crazy art, the jokes, the story… played it so many times, and it just gets better with each run.
These days, I’m making games myself and Toonstruck’s still a big influence. The way it made such a cool world with fun characters and tricky puzzles – it’s the kind of stuff I wanna put in my own games.
With all these old games getting sequels and remasters, why not Toonstruck 2? Now’s a good time, especially with Steam and GOG.com making it easy for new players to find it.
I can’t wait for Toonstruck 2 to be a thing. I’m all in to help make that happen. Big thanks to everyone who made the first game and those keeping Toonstruck going. You guys rock!

I just finished my fifth playthrough of Toonstruck thanks to my little sister who downloaded it on to her computer for me for my birthday. I been a fan since the beginning. When I didn’t a working copy of the game a would watch a play through on YouTube just to get my fix. I really hope part 2 becomes a reality some day. ????
Back in good old DOS times on my 386, ToonStruck was my very first game on CD.
As 12y old boy I really loved this game. It is the only one that I still keep in a drawer to pull it out from time to time to play again.
Even my wife, that has not grown up with computer and video game classics loves it enough to play it twice!
If there ever is a toostruck2 that completes the story of toonstruck1, you can be sure to have my money on it 🙂
This was one of the greatest adventures I ever played. So sad that it never got the attention it deserved … (not my fault, I tell people in games discussions about toonstruck, if they want to hear it or not 😉 )
I recently have been getting really into fmv games. I am absolutely in love with the style and toonstruck caught my attention this last month. It has been the #1 best fmv game I’ve played so far out of the list I’ve played. I can’t see it being topped. I would gladly pay any amount to get Toonstruck recreated AND toonstruck 2 to be made. Fmv/point and click games deserve to come back in a big way! Thanks to everyone helping possibly make some if this a reality!
Hello from Denmark. I played this game as a kid (32 now). I loved the wacky humour of it and I still to this day think it was a very unique game. Some might say a part of it is nostalgia, but I believe I can separate myself from that and say that it was genuinely a very good game filled with humour, surrealism, surprise, and story. Everything in my life has changed dramatically since I was a kid playing this game, but for some reason Toonstruck still has a place in my heart and I still, from time to time, like today, check up to see if there has been progress on Toonstruck 2. I hope this testimonial helps bring awareness so hopefully skilled artists and wacky minds, perhaps some of the original team from Toonstruck 1, can make a Toonstruck 2. – Rasmus
i always love toonstruck i hope when the squel comes out i want to be the frist to play i what to see the carvtie world of toonstruck
We’ve just added a WACMAN to our mini-games! You can even play two player. Check it out here.
This is a very impressive website. It sounds like the legal difficulties are the biggest hurdle, but whoever owns the rights would surely be happy for the opportunity for some cash? Where are they now?
One request: Could you add a main nav? The idea of the game’s icon in the bottom left hand corner is cute… but I totally missed it. A burger nav in the top right hand corner will work far better!
The legal hurdles are hopefully in the rear-view. There’s a large untapped audience for the remaster. Finding a publisher that recognises that is one of the new challenges. Fully establishing how far advances in tech can help with the game is also a big task, but an important one as it will dictate what sort of developers are needed to get it over the line. Obviously continued fan support and interest too. It’s not going to happen overnight.
I absolutely love Toonstruck! Every time I play through it, I always want more. I really hope that one day soon we’ll finally get to enjoy the last part of the adventure with Drew and Flux. Out of any series of classic point n’ clicks that got a remaster or a new game in the series, this is one that I fully believe deserves it’s sequel more than any! I know Toonstruck didn’t do well due to marketing, and I guess in 1996, it had to compete against FPS games. But now in 2023 thanks to Steam and GOG.com, Toonstruck has life again, and it is being played by a whole new generation of fans, and I believe that Toonstruck 2 will definitely do well now, but we really need whomever has the rights, to make it happen.
So I have here a link to a petition I setup, that I hope helps support Keith Arem in making Toonstruck 2 a reality!

I missed Flux on the second CD. I wonder if it was ever the intention to have him along?
Its been mentioned that part of Toonstrucks downfall was the lack of marketing to promote the game but as you can see from the attached pic, i still have PC Formats cover disc with the demo on and if it wasnt for this demo, id never have bought it.
I loved this game and played it when it first came out back when i wasnt aware of internet game walkthroughs etc, and so i recall gettin as far as reachin zanydu and gettin stuck. I was at university and took the game to my mates student accommodation and we stayed up all night and finally completed the game. I remember gettin stuck on the maya bird book order section and i still dont know how we beat it. Prob blind luck as i still recall struggling to understand each phrase to solve it.
Its been a while since i last played it and the idea of a remastered version appearing hopefully on consoles is fantastic. One dream was made real last year when the original quake finally came to xbox to to have toonstruck do the same would be great. As mentioned, weve had day of the tentacle and a new monkey island game, and weve also had a remastered grim fandango and with point and click games like the artifex mundi range, they are becoming increasingly popular. Ill keep my fingers crossed.
The book puzzle was tough, but I remember the phone quiz being the most difficult on first playthrough. I had to visit all the areas it asked about and make notes, then when I got back to the pub and called again, some of the questions had changed. Rinse and repeat three or four times and I’m sure I had them all right but I kept getting caught out by which shoulder of the toilet gauard they were talking about, my right or his right?!
There’s a moose!
My dad introduced me and my brother to point and click games in the 90s and I’ve loved the genre ever since. For me, Toonstruck hit that perfect balance between challenging puzzles, dry humour, and a compelling story. I still get anxiety to this day when I hand over the care crow’s new outfit!! Legendary.
Toonstruck is still one of my favorite games, cartoons, the humor, just everything about it. I always drew the characters when I was small and now I draw lots of other stuff, partially because of Toonstruck, so I’d love to help if I can.
It’s been a long wait for this – figured I’d be playing it as a head in glass jar on a spaceship orbiting mars.
Despite being an avid reader of PC game magazines, I was completely unaware of the existence of Toonstruck when I spotted it sitting in a lonely bargain bin of a game shop in Derby (UK) circa 1997. The blurb and the imagery were intriguing, so I parted with the hefty sum of £5 (about £12 or $14 in 2023 money) and fired up my 16x cd-rom drive.
I had great fun playing the game. The characters, locations, and one-liners were things I remembered well over a decade later when I did an internet search to see if the game was playable on a modern pc. To my surprise, I learned of the largely finished content that was cut from the game for a sequel that never saw the light of day.
Toonstruck ignited my love of point-and-click adventure games, and over the years, I would talk to other fans of the genre on forums and become increasingly surprised and disappointed to learn they had never heard of the game, well most of its peers have received a remaster. It’s a shame that after nearly 30 years, the game never reached an audience that would have greatly appreciated it.
Hopefully, by the time the game is 30 years old, that will have changed.
Balooooon?
No thank you, sir
Drew, we’re in deep doo doo!
We are?!
Nefarious and Fluffy, they’re still alive – you gotta help us!
I’ll do it, but wait wait, how will I get there?
Well, thanks to Nefarious’s Mutagen Ink, that’s not going to be a problem!
It isn’t?!
Whoa!
Mince my meat!
I’m a baaaaaad sheep!
Whip my cream!
