What about in KQ6 when you;re peeking through at Cassima:

"It's me, Alexander!  I'm here, behind this wall!"
NARRATOR: My, how suave that sounds!

For KQ, VI was definitely most one-liner-iffic....but all time Sierra games? SQIV. Pretty much every line the narrator said had me laughing!

Not a one-liner, but amusing nonetheless.

How to become King with little to no rupees down

Finding the right girl with the right dowry

When he's looking at the back shelf of the pawn shop it's funny too: "Mini carpet cleaner for those castles in a bottle.  Whale tongue climbing gear.  A bridge repair kit."   XB

In KQ2 they do a Space Quest video when you peek into a hole in a rock.  I was laughing when I was watching it.  I'll look for a download when I come home from work tonight.  Thanks, Shades!   <3

I always liked the line, when he looks at the set of cookbooks, about him having an aversion to cooking ever since a certain cat cookie recipe. ::)

I could have used that whale tongue climbing gear when I was stuck on KQIV for a LOOOOONG time!

I could give you mine, not sure if that's legal, though.

If it's the real thing you are giving her and not a copy then that's legal.

I'm liking this idea.  :yes:

Anyway...not one line, but each line is fun:

My first is foremost legally,
My second circles outwardly.
My third leads all in victory,
My fourth twice ands a nominee.
My whole is this gate's only key.

I like those.  It didn't take long to figure out that riddle, for me.  But I like it.

I love you, atec!   :-*

I don't remember the riddle being especially hard, either, but then again we had the Companion AND the official hint book.   ;D  I have it written on my white board in my room.

thanks ;D  Hope it works ok.

Yeah.  I never got the hintbook until after I had beaten all of them except 8.  THen I got the companion and hint books.

As for space quest, I've gotta play it a bit to find quotes, but I know there's a lot of funny ones from the narrorator. (sp?)

You actually don't even need to figure it out.  The answer is in the Black Widow's web and if you look in the Riddle Book before trading it in, there's a missing page which implies that it had Gate's riddle on it.

Well. I was little, and  I think I may not have figured that out the first time.  But that's cool.

Well yeah, but I didn't even notice that until I was older.  I didn't realize the connection when I was seven years old.   :)
