Well I thought that, since I’ve kinda failed to keep up with Rik’s output, it’s time to get cracking on more content. So I’d have another go at King’s Quest 6. This must be about the sixth attempt, somehow I’ve just never succesfully played through, but we really should get a King’s Quest on board […]

So I finally made it to the magic 100.
