... And the land of the lounge lizards. I used to go over to a friend's house to play this. Such a fun game.

retrogaming

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

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

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.

I participated to the kickstarter for the remake 10 years ago. Wasted money, it really sucked

This is who I always thought of back in the day when playing the game. "Three's Company" 70's-80's sitcom.

What did you do with the pocket lint?

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.

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

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. 😅

The funny thing is that nobody 20-40 can answer any of those questions now.

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

I did the same! We had to guess at the questions to prove we were 18 to play!

Not the best of the Sierra adventure games, but it was still very fun for sure.

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...)

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.

I liked the King's Quest series best. IV and VI stand out for me.

I had fun dying in this game.

I think it was this game that taught me to use a rubber.

That’s why I died so many times. LOL 😂

Was timed. Taught me how to touch type.

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.

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.

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"

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

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.

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
