Weird childhood memories about Sierra games?

40 Upvotes

Wonder if you have any strange childhood memories and experiences with Sierra games, like "things that were not supposed to be there", maybe something like Mandela effect, etc.?

I have a very strange story about Space Quest 5: the first time I played the game, I passed the test without cheating. The second time, I failed, but the third time I managed to do it again. Honestly, I had absolutely no idea one is supposed to cheat, and only found out about this when I read the walkthrough.

Space Quest fans unite!

First of all, let me thank the mods and admins of this reddit for allowing me to post here and to connect with the SQ community. Having this toy has been a dream of mine for a long time, but I needed a critical mass of supporters to bring it to life.

I'm back from Japan and I've been working solidly on the toy and the prototype is 95% done!

  • The Landing Gear / Engine mechanism is perfected.
  • The lighting and electronics are worked out.
  • Interior details are coming together and so is the assembly plan for production.
  • All that remains are some captain's chairs, a few decals and the removable roof/dorsal hatch!
  • The 3 action figures: Roger Wilco and Mark & Scott (two guys from Andromeda) are also in the works and their joints (articulation) is being worked right now. (This is the only part of the project I sub out to other artists as figures are not really my wheelhouse)

On track for September delivery!
