I have been playing the Space Quest series since it was originally released. It holds for me some of the most treasured memories of that time. It reminds me of a time where you were happy with graphics, any graphics. Playing this first on 4 color CGA and then moving to EGA then VGA - and now come some 30 years later, I'm playing it on a gigantic 40" 4k monitor . it is still as good as it ever was. For those new to the series, in a nutshell you play a space janitor called Roger Wilco, and trust me over the course of 6 games (or 2 in the case of thos 4+5+6 pack) you will come to love him like a stupid brother. Go back to a time where everything wasn't handed to you on a silver platter, when you felt a sense of pride and accomplishment at solving a puzzle that was totally whacky WITHOUT resorting to the WIKI. We didn't have Wiki. We had calling up friends and asking "man how did you beat this boss!!??" or "where did you find that dang data cartridge?" We had magazines and hint guides, but there was no instant give me the answer for everything back then, especially when the games were new. Sadly they don't make them much like this anymore. If it had a 10 star rating, it would get 10 stars, simple as I can put it. If you have never played SpaceQuest.. if you have never played it, stop reading this now. Buy it. You're welcome in advance.
