Old PC game memory?

[DJ Tara-san]

Last night as I was going over some fond 32 bit memories with my husband He brought up the topic of Commander Keen and suddenly I recalled playing a space game but, alas! I have no memory of what it was!

All I remembered of it was that the guy on the cover was taking down an alien with a plunger and in the game it was 32 bit graphics with a 3D-ish setting, the energizer bunny going by at times, and the fact that my PC at that time had trouble loading the maps so I kept getting killed by some small laser-wielding robot?

If anyone can help me recall what this game was I would really appreciate it.

Space Quest IV

Yeah, it was one of the quest games. There was space quest, police quest, king's quest, etc.

Wow! Thanks a lot Tim & MLE after a quick image search that definatly gave me a memory jog! ^_^

Now my next biggest problem... where to find it so I can play it. I'm off to amazon & ebay!

[MLE]

Dosbox and download it! That worked better for me than Steam when I decided to re-purchase Commander Keen. Stealing on the internet always seems to be the pro choice.

there was a space quest collection 1000 years ago, should be easy to find on intarnet for super legitimate purchase or evil illicit theft. i dunno what you meant by 32bit though.

I don't remember what colors were in each, but tbh, it doesn't really matter. The download's still going to be the same.

Also, hi mew :>

For the record, which was better, space or king's quest? Series wise.

kings quest made me wanna kill people. well mostly roberta williams with her TRY TO BE MORE CAREFUL NEXT TIME every time you accidently wander into an impossible situation

Space Quest IV was my favorite in that series, very amusing game. I loved that you got to set a trap to capture the Energizer Bunny, the whole space mall burger building thing, etc.

King Quest as a whole series though I definitely think was more impressive. King's Quest 5 and 6 were definitely my favorites, and the artwork in them is still fantastic to this day.

Monkey Island 1 and 2 will always remain my favorite adventure games though. Great storylines & character, incredible artwork, catchy music, and they were plenty challenging. Most importantly, however, no games have made me laugh out loud or as hard as those two did.

Images fixed. We now return you back to the topic at hand.

I played a bit of King's Quest (the one in the third image), and spent too much time dead.
Maybe that's why i prefer Monkey Island --- There was only one 'death', and the puzzles followed some logic.

I remember Hugo 3 was a bitch. I hated that witch doctor.

QUEST FOR GLORY IS THE BEST SIERRAQUEST GAME SERIES YOU GAYS >:

The Hugo series was fun. Really was a bitch at times, though.
