I loved the convenience store part where you have to buy flubbers

I told one if my coworkers about this game and he didn't believe me. The he goggled it and saw it was real. He thought it was great!

Memories... I 'hacked' it, found a text file with keywords, to know what to type in... Best TTYB game ever!

This, Police Quest, and Space Quest were staples of my gaming youth

What did you do with the pocket lint?
AndreaFarmer9
I did the same! We had to guess at the questions to prove we were 18 to play!

Some days I’d go over to my friend’s house just to spend an hour thumb-sucking our way through US trivia just to access the game.

Wow. I might finally play this then....

On the right there is a naugahyde door (Larry wonders how many naugas had to die for it) and behind it, a mini brothel with a hooker, guarded by a pimp.

When my kid asked "why do I need to learn how to spell?" I realized, Larry is why I needed to learn.

I see your Leisure Suit Larry and I raise you Leather Goddesses of Phobos

Not the best of the Sierra adventure games, but it was still very fun for sure.
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
At least it wasn't a Roberta game, so you didn't spend three hours climbing a tongue to try to tickle a uvula with a feather (which sounds like it OUGHT to be in an LSL game, but NO...)
AllTheGoodOnesWereGone
Passionate Patty (one of the LSL sequels) was a lot better IMHO.

Which was the best in your opinion? I was partial to Space Quest V.
InkyBlinkyPinkyAndClyde
I liked the King's Quest series best. IV and VI stand out for me.

Never played this game, but I did tried to play one of the early Elvira games

I could almost never answer the trivia to make sure I was old enough. The OG captcha.

Alt-x skips the trivia quiz. (Control-alt-x in VGA remake)

Used to ask my grandma the questions, she never bothered to figure out why I needed to know random trivia. 😅
Dudeitsonlyme
I had fun dying in this game.
GorbrushThreekwood
I think it was this game that taught me to use a rubber.
Dudeitsonlyme
That’s why I died so many times. LOL 😂
BaddeJimme
It taught me not to flush the toilet.

Was timed. Taught me how to touch type.
seniorcitizenfightclub
Me too. I credit Sierra Games with my ability to type quickly.

Police Quest, Space Quest, Kings Quest, Larry.. those games helped me learn English.
seniorcitizenfightclub
I wonder if they realized that through their games they were educating a generation? I had more fun and learned more from those games than any other in the past 40+ years.

Running this on DOS 3.2, thought I'd be smart and look at the executable in DEBUG. Scrolling through pages and pages of hex, looking for text strings... suddenly there it was, in clear text: "Find anything yet?" I was very impressed.
5NoteHalf
Oh, that's COOL!
ChloeRed
One game which didn't use the full disc it came on had right in the middle of the blank space "beam me up Scotty, there's no life out here"
DrDadJokes
I used to do this with games such as Ultima IV, finding the right exact word(s) to input. Sometime the games even had typos in it, making it impossible to guess.

Me and a friend played this game about a decade ago. We bought a leather bound notebook to take notes in. we never finished it but we got close. we only needed either 1 or 2 party member and 1 or2 virtues and we explored the final area a bit. we gave up when we found out there was secret tunnels under the dungeons to explore, and we got sick of our like entire party being put to sleep by i think ettins that just were everywhere. that's when we broke and looked some answers up online and stopped
MoonyT
it was very fun to still play, and it makes you appreciate stuff like location markers, quest trackers, accurate maps, and 3d graphics that look different enough you dont have to draw out the paths.
tobel
Oh my god I also bought a leather bound notebook. Also the game came WITH a type of spell/alchemy book and I thought I was super emo carrying it around with things like bellwort or echninacea references
