In the 18 years we've been putting out this little podcast, we've never produced a single episode wholly devoted to classic Sierra games. Well, that sin against listenerkind ends TODAY as we peer back 40 years in the past to discuss the monumentally important adventure game, King's Quest. Originally intended as a means to sell a platform that died shortly after its release, this interactive fairy tale unexpectedly went on to define Sierra and spawn many more Quests over the next decade-plus. On this episode, join Bob Mackey, patron Daniel Glass, and Sierra speedrunning correspondent (and Adventure Game Fan Fair affiliate) OneShortEye as the crew gathers to discuss the series that made this California developer synonymous with adventure—and frustration!

Not even a Contra fan and I listened to the whole 3 hours 42 minutes! Great hosting from Stuart, and an excellent panel. I look forward to more with you all! Cheers.

Man, this show really fell off once they started changing the hosts. Imagine watching Seinfeld for nearly a decade and enjoying the characters and their interactions, then suddenly they decide to completely change the cast every few episodes. Tf? At least there's still the back catalog 🤷🏼
Jeremy almost sounded human in this one. Baby steps..
They totally gaslighted Stu about the Links in this one.
I love the episodes with Bob Mackey. He's so annoying.
Great hosting Stuart 👍
Really love how they made the first two Taito episodes exclusive to their Patreon, but this one isn't. If they're going to make Patreon-exclusive episodes, they could at least have some consistency.
Limited Run Games is trash. They recently fired one of their employees because of the accounts she follows on Twitter. Hopefully they never do another episode with these idiots again.
Excellent podcast! Stuart Gipp is my favourite presenter. Keep up the good work!
What a great episode. It's amazing how good this podcast can be when the presenters have a sense of humour.
whoa whoa no mention of Fable?? shame on you
Lorenzo was great, he should be a recurring character. Also Radiator Historia was the hardest I've laughed in a long time.
Really enjoyed you hosting Stuart. Thanks

Really not a fan of locking popular topics behind the Patreon paywall. Instead of making me want to support the show on Patreon, it makes me not want to.
why tf is bob saying sakimoto? I feel like I'm having a stroke. It's always been Sakamoto Jesus wtf.
Episode 69... Nice.
Wtf is wrong with Shawn's microphone?
