Thank you for reminding me, Benny. I’ve played the Riven soundtrack so many times that I practically have it memorized. I guess it’s tied with KQ6 for living rent-free in my head all the time.

I always hate self-promotion because I feel like I’m not worthy of people following/watching me. Oh, well, here goes:

I’ve got a Twitch channel where I stream twice a week and an empty Discord server that I’m still figuring out how to manage. Oh, and, of course, you can find me as @kerban@twit.social on Mastodon and @SturmB on Twitter.

Or just see my Linktree.

Almost all of the Sierra games, but most especially King’s Quest VI. Space Quest III and IV are definitely close, though.

I even have them all on my Plex server so I can listen to them anytime. Often in the shower. Oh, wait, TMI? Sorry.

Hint books. Those wonderful, overpriced little books that required you used a special yellow highlighter to reveal the answers. And the Sierra hint line, if it existed at that time.

Honestly, I was just so blown away by the “3D graphics” that I didn’t mind its brutality. For me, that was just part of the game. Maybe these games are what helped me to learn patience and diligence.

Good day, Troels. My first PC game ever was King’s Quest III, on the IBM PC. That started my love for PC gaming and adventure games in particular.
