Anecdotes
Originally, there was not going to be voice acting and there would be six playable characters at the start. Apart from Bernard, Hoagie and Laverne, there would also be Razor (the female musician from Maniac Mansion (1987)), Moonglow (a short character in baggy clothes) and Chester (a beat poet). Because of design issues and memory limitations, Moonglow and Razor were omitted early on, while Chester became the basis for the twins Jed and Ned Edison. When Myst (1993) came out, it popularized voice acting in games, and when the game's original deadline could not be met, the creative team decided to make use of the extra development time to make Day of the Tentacle their first "talkie game". The disk version only had voice acting in the introduction, while the CD-ROM version had talking throughout the game.

Gaffes
Hoagie finds dry spaghetti in the Colonial-era mansion kitchen. Italian cuisine did not make it to the United States until the 19th century. Therefore, it's highly unlikely someone would have pasta in their kitchen around this time.

Citations
Laverne: This is all your fault Bernard.
Dr. Fred: Behold, children! The Chron-O-John!
Hoagie: Doc, can't you just send Bernard?
Dr. Fred: No, you must all go to increase the odds that one of you will make it there alive.
Bernard: Has any people even been hurt in this thing?
Dr. Fred: Of course not! This is the first time, I never tried it on people.

Crédits fous
The LucasArts logo at the end of the game has a golden tentacle appear and scare off the Gold Guy and take his place.

The best adventure game of all time

I remember buying this game at a trip I did. There it was: A new Lucas Arts game! I have played most of their previous games like Indiana Jones, Maniac Mansion and so on and I bought it instantly. I couldn't wait to get back home to play it. The graphic both amused and amazed me. The plot was great and playing it was funny as hell. After I finished the game, I was somewhat sad. I put it away and hoped I would forget all about how the game was solved and now, "some" years later, I got it as a present from my cousin in a Lucas Arts game box (christmas of 2003). I have not had time to play it until recently, and although I remember a lot of the puzzles, I have forgotten most of it, so the plan worked ;) - Day of the tentacle is a all time hall of fame for adventure games. No doubt. Two thumbs up. WAY up! Pure class.
