This game is similar to Dinner Bell, and appear in the same collection. You have to gather 14 kinds of mammal dna (like Dinner Bell, the list comes from a They Might Be Giants song).
You have to do this because your lizard-people overlords are forcing you to. So there is a genocidal aspect to the game.
I found this game to be somewhat difficult near the end because I didn't realize how many items had additional uses.
I used the Club Floyd transcript for the last two puzzles.
I found it enjoyable, but sometimes wonky (hidden items aren't listed in the room description even after you discover them, you can wind things you really oughtn't be able to wind, and so on).
