I hope this is cool to post here. It’s a Backerkit project for a documentary about Sierra On-line. I grew up playing these and figured there might be some other old farts around who would be interested.
I remember Kings Quest 6 blowing my mind when it came out and I only had the floppy disk version. I never knew until I was much older that there was a CD-ROM version with full voice over.
Color me surprised. I’ve read ken’s book which is recommendable. So what’s new here?
Having a closer look I’d really recommend the book, written by him and not some interviews with him. 🤷

And hi to all other old farts.
Cool, thanks for that. I read John Romero’s ‘Doom Guy’ earlier this year and it was pretty good. Not perfect, but it fed my nostalgia for the olden days of Commander Keen and Doom.
I read Hackers: Heros of the Computer Revolution by Steven Levy. Should I really read Kens book as well? I mean I feel I learned a lot about how it came about from Levy book.
I didn’t read that one.
Ken’s book is mainly focused on the business side of things. While that does sound boring how I stated it it is very good imo.
Man you should read it. It goes over the entire computer revolution from like 50’s on.
I might, thanks!
