I’m pretty glad that game design has evolved since then. Though I must concede that the writing isn’t bad at all. I somehow have the suspicion that writers at Sierra came up with hundreds of funny death notes, then had some poor sod fill the gaps with a bit of adventure gameplay. ---

The various situations are very funny (if you don´t just happen to die for the same reason over and over again, or walk into a dead end wanting to go back only to have an enemy appear out of nowhere from where you left the dead end). Once in a while if the parser doesn´t understand me it just says “Say what?” who wrote this? Grandmasta Flash? ---

Ooh, this gives me an idea! I’m going to develop a game with **thousand** rooms… extreme Sierra style! You will spend an eternity in the first room, constantly dying, just for a chance to experience the thrill of seeing the next room… which is impossible. Muahhahhahhahaa… 😌 🤨 ---

I can´t go anywhere in the desert without getting eaten and if I linger too long by the rocks the exploding robot spider starts stalking me and if that happens there seems to be no escape. The last thing I picked up was the survival kit inside the cockpit of the escape pod. ---

At some point you need to go back to the pod and pick up something else. I’m telling you that so you don’t get too far without it; you’ll need it. That sort of thing is going to be difficult, actually. I wanted to say check with me before you move to the next level, but a) that kinda ruins the fun and b) you won’t necessarily know when you’re about to move to the next level! I guess just keep saving to be sure. Anyway… I can’t remember where the ho- gap is! If you get really stuck I can direct you from the pod as the walkthrough gives directions. ---

On my picture above there is this long gaping vertical slit…goddamnit, sorry but that´s what it is! When I stand before it, it still says I was too far away. I´m pretty sure that was supposed to be it. I opened the box and I have the dyhydrated water and the swiss army knife. I mean I could check again for the pod, since that seems to be the only safe place ---

🤣 Okay, forget about that hole! That was obviously not the way to go. (it was the one on the right hand side of the screen and I had to look at it from the left side facing right, everything else including standing right in front of it was wrong!) ---
