In all seriousness. The first time i saw screenshots of this game, i thought the walk cursor WAS the character, due to the fact it was in the same exact style and quality as the game character.
If anyone was to take a pass at updating the cursors ever, my suggestion might be to make it more abstract, and not so realistic to help this. I believe sierra's game cursors varied in style and color usage from game to game, but (correct me if i'm wrong here) most of them where monochromatic, which i felt probably helped usability.
Also with stuff like documentation, or hint books and such:
"To walk in the game, click the Mr Roehm cursor where you want Mr Roehm to walk."
If it was more abstract, you might not have this challenge.
I reckon you should instead just put Little Mr Roehm into the mini-game instead. He likes it there anyway i'm sure!
