Finally playing Fatty Bear made my daughter remember how much fun she had with the Putt-Putt series, so she wanted more games in the same genre. Here comes Pajama Sam! This is from the second half of the Nineties and it's clearly spawned from the experience the developers had on the first bunch of Putt-Putt games.
