What a disturbing game. Oink! puts you in the roll of the three little pigs from the fable where the big, bad wolf blows their houses down...Except in Oink!, instead of blowing their houses down, the wolf has a tongue like a frog and uses his tongue to demolish your house one brick at a time...While he does this, you need to try to patch up the holes. If he breaks down enough of the wall with his disturbingly long tongue, the wolf will then try to lasso you with his way-too-long lingua and drag you to your death. Honestly, being French-kissed to death by a wolf sounds like something that Mystique would have put out, not Activision. Overall, Oink! Is a decent game, and not a bad game to pick up if you're looking to expand your Atari 2600 collection, disturbing imagery and all.
