Latest Problem Sleuth update: 10/31/09
Hey everyone, I just wasted a huge portion of my evening checking out "MS Paint Adventure." Basically, it's this website where Andrew Hussie, the creator of the comic, makes up a ridiculous situation. The readers of the comic suggest what happens next, and the most popular solution wins, advancing the comic. It's sort of like a game, sort of like a story. It's not unlike those "choose your own adventure" books that everyone remembers as a kid.
When you start, you will be given few options as to what to do (usually you'll just click to advance) but later on, more and more options open up. There is a world map too so you can check out all of the locales revealed in the story.
So, read on, for a bizarre look into alternate realities, alcohol induced couch forts, and plenty of gun toting action!

**Just so you don't get confused by the key-gun thing... quite often in the story, the keys in your inventory become guns, and the guns become keys. It is intentional... I don't know why it happens though**
Characters:
Problem Sleuth: Medium height detective. Able to wield many kinds of weaponry. Possesses a decent Imagination, plenty of Pultintrude and average Vim skills.
Ace Dick: Short and stout. A very brutish and strong crime solver. Can wield heavy weapons. Has very high Pultintrude and Vim skills, but has no Imagination. Because of this, he is unable to create a coherent imaginative secondary plane of existence.
Pickles Inspector: A tall nervous detective. Physically frail, and is unable to wield weapons thanks to his low Vim skills. However, his Imagination is the highest of all the characters. He possesses god-like abilities in the imaginative realm.
Hysterical Dame: A female counterpart of PS. Is created in his imagination when he hits his head on a wardrobe. Due to some strange space time paradox, they are able to meet in reality on occasion. Wields a stick of lipstick that becomes a chainsaw when she is angry.
Nervous Dame: A female version of PI. Very nervous. Carries around a teddy bear to prevent panic attacks. Her teddy bear becomes a knife when she is threatened.
Ace Dick (2): Due to his horrid imagination, Ace Dick is unable to imagine a female version of himself, so instead he imagines a second Ace Dick. It dons a wig, which helps distinguish the two. The second Ace Dick becomes a zombie, but still helps our heroes.
