Download this! (http://www.zombie-cow.com/?page_id=17)
Ben There, Dan That is a point and click adventure game like the old Lucas Arts games, only with a lot of British humour (see what I did there?). The puzzles aren't terribly hard and I only really got stuck in one place near the very end because I didn't notice an item that could be picked up.
Its just a hilarious game, totally check it out. Hey, its free! They do have a sequel called Time Gentlemen, Please! that they are selling, but its only like $5 so I'll probably get it.

The devs just updated Ben There, Dan That!
Best update log I've ever read:
“We’ve George Lucased it right up”, developer proudly exclaims.
Ben There, Dan That! has always been pleasingly great, but it needed a bit of extra oomph I couldn’t quite afford to do when it was first released. So then, like an AWOL George Lucas, I’ve hand-crafted a scrubbed-up SPECIAL EDITON version of the game.
FEATURES:
>> New swishy graphical enhancements throughout! Ben There, Dan That! is now exponentially more gorgeous and sexy to look at.
>> A stunning jazzy Sam and Max: Hit the Road homage-y soundtrack! Music that will caress your ears and grate infuriatingly as you fail to solve a puzzle.
>> More sound effects!
>> Some better signposting for the puzzles people didn’t get, or the objects they couldn’t see!
> The more-readable font from Time Gentlemen, Please!, enhancing brand synergy across the series.
>> Fixes some boring Windows 7 issue a few people were having.
SPECIAL BONUS MATERIAL:
EXCLUSIVE: A special 16-page eBook candidly telling the whole story of the game’s creation for the first time; “Lowering the Tone”
EXCLUSIVE: An extra special never-before-seen treat: a non-interactive video storybook presentation lifted from Dan and Bens’ diary entries, explaining the backstory as to exactly how Dan wound up dead in a jungle tied to a length of twine in the first place. Hear Dan and Ben speak for the first time in this fully voiced, and expertly illustrated six-and-a-half minute extravaganza.
EXCLUSIVE: All the ‘cut’ music that didn’t make it into the final game. Hear unloved and unused renditions of your favourite Ben There, Dan That! ditties.
EXCLUSIVE: Posters to print out and hang over your living room window, or to slap on your desktop.
EXCLUSIVE: Never-before-heard audio recording of Ben stomping around his flat cheering his own name, for the ending sequence. Truly there has never been a more honest depiction of the lengths indie developers have to go to for their art.
EXCLUSIVE: Dan and Ben ringtones – give your phone the Dan and Ben once-over with these exclusive musical ditties.
