Yeah, the style of art is quite familiar, but I'm drawing a blank. Even tried Google-fu and didn't come up with anything.

Hint: It's part 4 of a 5-part series. That should make it really easy.

I don't know what that is but it looks awesome.

Ahhh!

I wonder if I ever played any of those when I was younger. I was searching through every old King's Quest game to see if there were any dialogue parts like that.


ETA: Downloading one of those asap.

Syndicate! As in, the real one, not the latest travesty sullying its name.

Tough one. :P

I rented this as a kid and couldn't figure it out if I remember correctly.

I'm totally geeking out on Quest for Glory right now. Sierra made such badass games back in the day.

Speaking of Sierra, the creator of Gabriel Knight has a paysite up now with an interesting new business model... apparently you pay for a 1 year subscription and you get to play anything the team creates during that year. I'm skeptical that the model will end up being for one game but heck, if it turns out to be awesome like Gabriel Knight, I might pay for the subscription anyway...

Yep, also Syndicate. This one on the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis. :D

Are you actually playing it? If so, do yourself a favor and play the original EGA version of Hero's Quest/QfG 1. It's miles better than the VGA remake. And don't forget to export your character and import him into the next installment. Doing that is also the only way to play a paladin in QfG 4 and 5 (you can become paladin at the end of 2).
