Dr. Fred’s mutated purple tentacle is about to take over the world, and only you can stop him!
Originally released by LucasArts in 1993 as a sequel to Ron Gilbert’s ground breaking Maniac Mansion, Day of the Tentacle is a mind-bending, time travel, cartoon puzzle adventure game in which three unlikely friends work together to prevent an evil mutated purple tentacle from taking over the world!
Now, over twenty years later, Day of the Tentacle is back in a remastered edition that features all new hand-drawn, high resolution artwork, with remastered audio, music and sound effects (which the original 90s marketing blurb described as ‘zany!’).
Players are able to switch back and forth between classic and remastered modes, and mix and match audio, graphics and user interface to their heart’s desire. We’ve also included a concept art browser, and recorded a commentary track with the game’s original creators Tim Schafer, Dave Grossman, Larry Ahern, Peter Chan, Peter McConnell and Clint Bajakian.
Day of the Tentacle was Tim Schafer’s first game as co-project lead, and a much beloved cult classic! This special edition has been lovingly restored and remade with the care and attention that can only come from involving the game's original creators.

Day of the Tentacle Remastered Reviews
Good but Sound Issue
For everyone experiencing the problem of no sound - no idea why, on my iPhone 12 all Double Fine games don’t play sound unless you connect to an external bluetooth device like AirPods. Technically connects to CarPlay too but the broadcast lag there is so bad it messes up voice lip sync for the characters.
Fatphobic content warning
As a fat person the last thing I want in my fun relaxing phone game is to hear a fat character described as “Lardo” and other similar dumb jokes. Yuck.
Sound
Why can’t I hear anything on my iPhone?
The best game!
I love this game. I played it a lot of years ago, but I played again recently and I enjoyed this so much!
Absolute Masterpiece
Amazing game. I’m not smart enough to beat these games without a walkthrough, but the story and humor is what keeps me playing this genre since being a kid. Seamlessly switch between retro game graphics or remastered which is neat. Also includes maniac mansion buried in the game.
Masterpiece Remastered
Beautiful game, love the easy ability to switch between original and remastered even during active play. Happy to finally experience this on a convenient platform.
Perfect blast from the past
Wish I’d saved this for a long flight! Perfect recapture - a blast from the past - no messing around with in-app purchase nonsense. Thanks for making come back to life remastered!
My kids love this game
I played this game and loved it when I was a kid. I never imagined my kids would dig it as well, but now they’re doing speed runs since they’ve beat it already.
Great!! Fix for no sound!
Played this game as a kid in the 90s and loved it!! Excited to play again! Was nervous to read reviews saying no sound, and when I started it I had no sound either and was worried! All you have to do and turn your phone off of silent mode. Fixed the problem!
ok
fun, but annoying to miss dialogue when i tap and don’t realize a cut scene has started
