Why We Loved Sierra Games: King’s Quest 2015: 1984 Sierra fan reviews...

[ewing]

It's finally here!

This review/retrospective tackles why we loved Sierra games against the backdrop of King's Quest 2015. It tries to provide tangible game design reasons about what made classic Sierra games special, with a particular focus on the special relationship between storytelling and puzzles. And of course a look at how KQ2015 measures up.

Even if you don't ultimately agree with my opinions, it should be a fun, nostalgic romp through Sierra games as it also tries to celebrate Sierra games and their creators. It contains clips from almost all the Sierra games, interview excerpts from most of the original designers (got Jane Jensen in there a couple of times), lots of classic Sierra music, and a tribute to Gary Owens.

I really appreciate all help in spreading the word. I'm a social media dummy.

Thanks,

I just happened to find this video on /r/adventuregames and wanted to stop by and tell you how great of a job you did on it. It's amazing. Thank you for taking the time to go over our favorite game company and the challenges that lie ahead for the genre.
