The movie itself switches gears at the halfway mark (when Sal forces Richard to stay and wait for the kids with the map) to the point where it's incomprehensible. By the time it morphed into a video game, I was of the mind that being afflicted with irritable bowel syndrome would have been more pleasant than being subjected to that piffle.
