The briefing

About this game

Herbert's Dummy Run is an arcade adventure platform game and the fourth entry in the Wally Week series. Baby Herbert is lost in a department store and must find his parents, Wally and Wilma, in the Lost and Found before the day ends.

Progress involves collecting objects and placing them in the correct locations. Herbert can carry only two objects at a time, and some items are required to complete arcade sequences. Dangerous nasties must be avoided, as contact fills Herbert's tear gauge. When the gauge is full, one of three lives is lost; losing all lives or running out of time ends the game.
