So I was not the only guy who got burned by
"Oh, you forgot to break off a piece of crystal three hours ago? You're fucked, lol."

garcet71283 - 2011-03-08 Don't forget that glinting pixel in the freaking birds nest that you don't need for another 2 hours.

FABIO - 2011-09-23 Wasn't this the screen where the second time you visit it, the rat gets chased by the cat? And unless you've already ventured all the way out to the desert to get the boot, which is HIGHLY FUCKING UNLIKELY by the time you visit the inn for a second time, the game was now unwinnable. Without even the vaguest hint at what you needed to change ("you died tied up in this basement").

why is the tag "roberta williams" instead of "Fuck you Roberta Williams"?

Don't even think about using that gold needle to pay the gypsies. Don't do it.

codehappy - 2011-03-08 I remembered eating the cream pie to stave your hunger and using the stick to chase off the cat as being two ways to solve the "puzzles" for which the game rewards you with points and also a completely unwinnable state. I forgot entirely about giving the gypsies the needle. My hate for this game is rising again, and I LIKE old adventure games.
The "puzzle" involving the moldy cheese and the wand-charging machine outraged me beyond belief twenty years ago. I still don't understand how somebody is supposed to figure that out without random clicking (or buying the hint book: you spent on this horrible game, now give Sierra On-Line more money).
Also, at two points -- two -- in this game King Graham picks up a dead fish lying around just because he thinks it'll come in useful. I'd call the man dangerously insane except for the fact that both times he's right. So, I'll just assume Roberta Williams is dangerously insane.

Precisely the right thing to answer when His Majesty the Ant King presents your low peasantry with such an impossibly gracious gift. If you don't say you're honored, the consequences are DIRE.

Chet and Erik were wrong. Clearly, Roberta Williams' vagina is filled with ants.

I liked this and VI as a kid, but we didn't have a CD-Rom drive so I only played the floppy version.
They're much better without the voice acting.

Old_Zircon - 2016-04-04 Which is not to say they weren't still completely unfair to the point of being almost mean spirited, especially this one.
