"What was Atari THINKING!?!"
I loved the other Pajama Sam games, so when I purchased this one, I was disappointed.
There is only ONE path. The storyline doesn't involve Sam learning anything like the previous games.
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?
It seems that, after successfully expanding the Backyard Sports line, they decided to take a chance with the Junior Adventures. The thing is, so many original people from Humongous left by the time the company was sold to Atari, that they had no guidance whatsoever, except for a few copies of the other Pajama Sams. Being 'busy executives', however, they had NO time to thoroughly play through the game, and immediately assumed it had only one path.
The result was a game that is COMPLETELY devoid of all the charm of the other Junior Adventures. The graphics were good, but the one path and other things put me off. However, I must commend them for at least attempting to mimic the greatness of Humongous Entertainment.

Nice try, Atari. Better stick to the Backyard Sports from now on.

"Pajama Sam 4 (Russian Blue Witch)"
I DO NOT LIKE THIS GAME! Anyways, when we got this (From the library) I thought I would like it, but, although I never came across his mouth moving at the wrong time, him freezing in the air, things like that, I HATE IT! The carrot has become a silly poster in Sam's room, breaking the tradtion of always haveing him there. It never changes, unlike the other games. I liked the sock musical, but it's not a musical, just music. I also cried about it and yet insisted in hearing it five times, and now I'm trying to make a musical out of it (That thorws on a star)! I like the plot, but it ruins it when I remember it's all just for a silly COMIC BOOK!!!!! I like Grandma whatever but I don't like going to her place because of the mutant clothes. And I don't like how the guy who runs the buldozer lets Sam run it WITH NO SUPERVISION! (Sorry if I wrote it like, "SUPER VISION" like super heros use) I also didn't like the "Debis Removele Game", because I couldn't find any matches, so I just turned off the screen and the volume and waited, and when I turned them back on the pond was clear, even though I didn't do any thing! I hate how his voice has changed too. Signed, RBW

"Very disappointed in this game. Not as good"
As other reviews mentioned, the game is choppy, the sound quality is terrible and it takes forever for the character to move from place to place. In addition, neither my child or I could find half the objects! For instance, we found the jar to put the fireflies in but it said that there needed to be holes in the top first. But, there is nothing that is sharp that you can find to make the holes! And, you can't get into the cave without the jar of fireflies. Very few places to visit in this game and hardly anything to do in most of the places. No hints about where to look for things or what parts are even needed! Disappointed as the other Pajama Sam games were so easy. This is a child's game? I as an adult couldn't find half the items, how is a child supposed to?

"If you haven't played them, PJ Sam 1-3 are better"
The other pajama sam games are lots of fun for kids, but you might as well skip this one...

The lip-sync is so bad...It doesn't even look close. You might think you could ignore that but there's more...

The transitions from area to area are slow (about 5 seconds, sometimes more) as well, for us it always crashes at a certain point near the end.

The sound is kind of slow, and P.J.'s voice doesn't really sound genuine, unlike the previous games (for instance, he pronounces "book" with a diminutive k, which makes him sound very un-kidlike).

Plus, I think the puzzles and overall feel from the previous games is far superior as well. Trust me, the old ones, if you can get your hands on them, are a lot better.

"Don't Buy This One!"
I bought this game for my 5 year old twin granddaughters, who have loved all the Freddi Fish adventures, and who enjoy playing Pajama Sam Games to Play on Any Day. They hate the Life is Rough When You Lose Your Stuff adventure. It is very slow moving from screen to screen. It freezes the computer repeatedly. It is a major disappointment. I expected far better from the folks who have provided untold hours of fun with Freddi Fish. I know they are capable of better quality than this game provides.
