![]() ![]() ![]() The intro even ends with a parody of Battleship Potemkin with the three leads in bit parts (and Dino as the baby in the carriage). All of the game messages are written in a faux-Cyrillic font, which causes confusion in whoever is actually capable of reading Cyrillic alphabet. ![]() The pretense of being an examination of another culture was ditched as well – this time the game is an out-and-out parody of post-Communist Russia and of Russian stereotypes, with groan-worthy puns such as “Lenintendo”, “Leo Tallstory” and “Burger Czar”. ![]() The order of the three sequences is fixed and the characters do not meet with each other before the final act of the story.

This time the three D’s find themselves in early 90s Russia for totally unrelated but familiar reasons: Doug is planning a heist, Dino is looking for a job, and Donna is apparently a star of the Bolshoi after her stint with the Emperor of Japan(!) in the first game. So, after having made a contract with CORE Design, in 1995 they released a sequel named The Big Red Adventure. It had beautiful hand-drawn graphics but an extremely simple plot and interface.īefore the release of Tequila and Boom Boom however, Dynabyte decided that it was better to return to their first, best and more well-known project. They later on decided to go back to adventure games with Tequila and Boom Boom which, sixteen years before Rango, was a hybrid of spaghetti western (mainly the comedic Bud Spencer and Terence Hill movies) and Saturday morning cartoon with animal characters. After this they made an experimental title, Late Night Sexy Show, a quiz game with erotic content starring a female host rendered in ray-tracing. For their next self-published project, Dynabyte changed genres but stayed in Japan with the abysmal anime-esque 1-on-1 fighter Tube Warriors for Amiga.
