Space Quest. *drool*

It curdled, and then I couldn't drink it. So I mixed it with some water, and it was alright again.
I am now sick.

I learned to type playing Sierra games. Loved all the KQ's, Hero's Quest, Space Quest, the old leisure suit larry games.
KQ3 was one of my favs, too bad the installer on this remake doesn't work...

I still own the original magnetic media (aka floppies) for KQ1 and KQ6 ... but the bits are probably scrambled by now.
As for this remake, no workie in wine and no Linux port = teh lose. I might try my luck with some AGI reimplementation some day.
