January 17, 2021Episode 22 – The Colonel’s Bequest (unplugged)
In this weeks “Passion of the Geeks – Unplugged”, Pat continues talking about retro adventure games he holds dear with The Colonel’s Bequest – A Laura Bow Mystery by Sierra On-Line.
A murder mystery adventure game that doesn’t rely on puzzles but another game mechanic. Not everyone was a fan so that the sequel was created as a more traditional adventure.
But the unique gameplay of The Colonel’s Bequest is exactly what makes this game so special.
Just don’t forget to fill that notebook…
