What Makes You Tick: A Stitch In Time

Windows - 2010
Also available on: Mac

How to Play

The game originally released in 2010 as the commercial product, the original release didn't have any voice-over. There was also physical CD releases in Germany and Russia, that version are the translated variants of original release, they don't have any voice-over too. In 2015, the game received updated talkie release that had full English voice-over and English & German subtitles. Talkie release is the best variant of the game to play and it works fine on modern systems. Few years ago the developers made both "What Makes You Tick?" games available for free on their website

Notes:

  • The game has been tested on Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 10, it works fine. If the game doesn't work - run it in Compatibility mode with old Windows (like Windows XP) and as Administrator
  • The game was created with Adobe AIR and requires the installed Adobe AIR for the work, the installer can be downloaded here. If the game doesn't start, additionally install Adobe Flash Player 32 from here or Macromedia Flash 8 from here, it should help
  • If the game doesn't run and crashes - set the desktop resolution to 1024x768 or lower and try to run the game again

It's a two parter game. Just download the compliation file and unzip. my game crashed a few times but restarting the game takes you right where it's crashed. it's must play.
