Double Fine has also added some light developer commentary, which is entertaining but could have used a better interface. When you toggle commentary on, the game will prompt you to hit “A” when you enter certain rooms or solve certain puzzles, but it won’t tell you whether you’ve prompted a new piece of commentary or an old one. There’s also no way to fast forward the commentary, pause it, or listen to it separately.

And if you ever get stuck, just remember the golden rule of adventure games: Click everything.
