The first three games were every but as hilarious as they were frustrating. Some puzzles were obnoxious or required absurd timing. I loved each one of them and I'm intrigued of seeing a new title in the series.
ReplyDeletePierre Gilhodes (author) never was "founder of Sierra" , he was part of French team Coktel Vision, when Goblins originated. Very much later Sierra funded G3 and Woodruff... Wikipedia..? LOL
ReplyDeleteYes, Wikipedia it seems. They're referring to this video interview with Ken/Roberta Williams, which came out several months after G5 was being crowdfunded on Ulule, but I guess it was the first time outside of Facebook and Reddit someone talked about the game publicly.
