Based on the series of comedy films starring Jim Carrey, the PC version of Ace Ventura: Pet Detective is a point-and-click adventure in which you take on the role of Ace, who's out to solve a case involving endangered animals. Game play requires players to visit areas, gather clues, interact with people and solve puzzles.

Over 60 exotic locations can be explored, ranging from the Alaskan Tundra to the Bavarian castle of Phatteus Lardus. Players will be confronted by a variety of animal-hating villains who try to throw a monkey wrench into the investigation and they're every bit as weird, wacky and witless as Ace. A humorous adventure portrayed in a cartoonish manner, the game lets you scour the world for clues, race in a high-tech snowmobile, rub noses with Eskimo maidens and go where no sane Pet Detective has gone before. ~ Scott Steinberg, All Game Guide
