What's great is that Lost Pig is on the lighter side. I found myself laughing most of the time while I gleefully wandered around. Grunk narrates the game in caveman-like diction, but this element never became annoying to me. It really serves to absorb you into the amiable character. The game isn't very long but offers up a relatively good challenge, particularly if you are unfamiliar with the genre.

Die Sau hast du damit aber noch nicht im Sack...
Der Erz�hlstil bedient sich des grammatikalischen Verst�ndnisses unseres Hauptdarstellers -- Grunk. Das h�rt sich anstrengend an, wurde aber so liebevoll und geschickt umgesetzt, da� es tats�chlich schon den ersten Humorbonus daf�r gibt. S�mtliche Standardantworten scheinen ebenfalls daraufhin angepa�t worden zu sein, was von gro�er Gr�ndlichkeit seitens des Autors zeugt. ...
