Count Fivefingers finds liontaurs and earth aardvarks in faux-Africa. I told you not to turn around!

See the doodles!

Playlist:

Part 1: Rakeesh the liontaur goes home to faux-Egypt and Count Fivefingers follows along because…well, he doesn’t have much else to do.

Part 2: Our hero visits Tarna, home of hippies, thieves, and cat-snake-centaur-statue-woman-things.

Part 3: We visit the bazaar, which, despite being placed in fantasy Egypt, is full of 1970’s stereotypes. Also, excited talking dogs!

Part 4: We meet probably the best character in the entire series, who’s slightly wasted and won’t. Shut. Up!

Part 5: We finally get out of Tarna and its environs and visit a local tribal village. Turns out they’re avid Atari players.

Part 6: We visit the Heart of the World, a giant tree possibly filled with LSD. Also: a monkey.

Part 7: The Atari tribe caught a Leopardman! Let’s all go make fun of it! Also featuring apparently the most soft-spoken son of a chief who told you not to turn around.

Part 8: Who wants to partake in a hallucinatory BuzzFeed quiz?

Part 9: Count Fivefingers buys himself a five-zebra-skin wife. Surprisingly, the wife doesn’t immediately put out. Also, Obama tells a story, and our thieving hero finally commits some thieving.

Part 10: We finally bring some peace between the Leopardman tribe and the Atari players. Then everyone dies. We are heroes.

Part 11: In this finale, we’re very nearly defeated by the most sinister of endbosses: buggy cutscenes!

The brainy fun continues as we tackle the Island of Dr. Brain! Some guy stole Dr. Brain’s battery or something. Wacky puzzles ensue!

See the doodles!

Playlist

Part 1: Polyominos! Quadratic Equations! Towers of Hanoi! Voice Acting! It’s got it all!

Part 2: Racist jokes in Spanish and Henry Kissinger quotes? This is educational!

Part 3, where vitamin C tablets are sugar pills!

Part 4: The magic square keeps on doggin’ us. Then: Grammar Ants! Grammar Corn! Grammar Apples!…Well, I tried to make the word “grammar” sound exciting.

Part 5: What’s the best material to make an elevator counterweight out of? Why, 25 pounds of mercury, of course!

Part 6: We finally get to the art and music portion of the puzzles, which we pass with flying colors. Couldn’t the magic math square have been this easy? Also: genetics.

Part 7: All those years of Robot Odyssey finally pay off as we solve a logic gate problem and save the volcano with our NANDs! Also, we finally get to see Dr. Brain’s secret experiment! It’s, uh…it’s…it’s a thing.

Glorious questing was never this mystically Arabically enchanting!

This is the remake of Quest for Glory II, found at AGD Interactive.

See the doodles!

Part 13: Count Fivefingers buys a bunch of crazy kitsch for his bedroom, including a…signed box of Quest for Glory II? And just like that, this game is suddenly an Inception-based nightmare.

Part 14: You know Fire, and Air, and Earth, and Water. But do you recall the most delicious elemental of all?

Part 15: It’s clobberin’ time as Count Fivefingers faces the Earth Elemental!

Part 16: We save a weird reverse Chimera. An…American? Also, Count Fivefingers really needs to invest in a Google Maps app.

Part 17: Count Fivefingers finally gets around to some robbin’, only to be stymied by the adventure game curse of “You’re not close enough!” Also, there’s, like, a water elemental, but no biggie.

Part 18: We *finally* bid goodbye to Shapeir, only to end on a cliffhanger! How will Count Fivefingers get out of this scrape?!? Tune in next time, but first let’s all go to the lobby to get ourselves a treat!

Part 19: Our hero finally gets to Raseir. Doodler, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Part 20: We steal a (fake) Blackbird, then get arrested. Not for the theft, oddly enough. But don’t worry, our good friend Ad Avis is here to… save us…?

Part 21: Count Fivefingers is sent to find the Statue of Iblis. Is he truly a diamond in the rough?

Part 22: We wrap up this game by enlisting the harem girls to help us knock a dude out a window. Also, Vincent Price was the sultan the whole time!
