An amazing trip down memory lane! |
Space Quest... the ultimate computer geek fantasy game from the innocent days of young graphic adventures!! We spent hours and hours trying to get through the many adventures of Roger Wilco, which were filled with perplexing challenges, tongue-in-cheek humor, and some surprisingly great graphics (especially in the later episodes) that redefined gameplay as we knew it.
I was ecstatic that these were re-released, and was mainly pleased with this incarnation. All episodes are offered in their entirety (even the annoying copy protection schemes!!) and online web sites can now cut down on your frustration by providing tons of hints =) Excellent job reviving these classics.
My one small gripe--the redone Space Quest I is included, but the original Space Quest is not. Although the graphics of the original pale in comparison to the remake, nostalgia forces me to comment that its exclusion makes this a slightly incomplete collection. |

Ah, fun! |
|
It's still funny after all this time! The early games can be tough to get through though. (How many times must I die?!) I highly recommend this if you don't mind old graphics and limited game play. :) |

Worth it, but not as good as the nostalgic hype |
|
The games were fun, but not engrossing. There were a couple of mild glitches where the controls did not react fast enough for the challenge that your character is facing so it is difficult to complete certain levels, especially on episode 2. |

Poor graphics- no enhancements |
|
Definitely the original, unfortunately the graphics were not enhanced in any way and its difficult to play. It does work on Windows Vista but we have a large monitor and it looks terrible. We have to play it on the small laptop to get real use of the game. Wouldn't buy it again. |

that's a go, Wilco! |

you must have DOS Box to play, it comes with it. I recommend downloading the latest version and getting better sound out of the games! GM or Roland support in 7.2 the current as of this writting. You need to take a bit of time read that tutorial of theres to get anything done with it! The games themselves are five aces all the way. The fact it doesn't play in XP is MS's fault. Great space parody of movies across the board from mainly Star Trek(prominent in Space Quest V Next Mutation-odvious title and in jokes to boot) Also in jokes here and there from Star Wars, Buck Rogers(In the Twenty Fith century), Flash gordon, and some less known movies that were total crap anyway. Also pun jokes of badly written video games true gamers would be able to relate to that humor as why a store you visit is drawn too cheaply becasue the "writers of the game" as Roger put it "Were to CHEAP to implenmet better graphics!" MS jokes are also, belevie it or not, thrown in. Surprisng as DOS is an A+ system! Love the narrator's voice(Roger Ramjet guy!) in IV, VI. The six games I played/dreamed of since H.S back in the 80's. Much like King's Quest, Police Quest, QUest for Glory(hero's QUest) but rediculously funny instead of using logic you use Roger Wilco "logic" To solve a puzzle. Juvenile delinquency and childish pranks gets you more than professionalism. Your trusty toilet plunger and a few buckazoids is all it takes! Great game for the adult in you and the child in you too! |
