See the doodles!

Part 27: Good Nus! We’ve found the magical kingdom of Zeal! Bad Nus! We have to fight some Nus.

Part 28: I really, really, apologize for the voice we gave Princess Schala. It will eventually go away, I promise.

Part 29: Our heroes get kicked out of the Magical Land of Exposition, probably for making fun of it too much. Lavos lavos lavos.

Part 30: Our time machine receives probably the stupidest name ever.

Part 31: This part is mostly sidequests and teenage angst, the two pillars of all JRPG’s.

Part 32: Miscellaneous item collection leads us to discuss the time travel theories that the Internet has come up with to explain how Chrono Trigger ticks. Uh, no pun intended.

Part 33: Parking in the future is terrible. You have to traverse an entire hemisphere just to get back to your spot. Also, whose idea was it to cram the entire earthbound population of 12,000 BC into dirt caves that are literally next door to ravenous killer beasts?

Part 34: Rubble rubble! We’re heading up Mt. Woe!

Part 35: A boss fight against Giga Gaia leads into the first part of a multi-part rant about why Schala is, in fact, a terrible person. At least her voice gets better.

Glorious questing was never this mystically Arabically enchanting!

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

Part 7: The sneaky Count Fivefingers burns to death and also gets killed by a dinosaur.

Part 8: Can our hero defeat the sinister eskimo Sweeping Sir James? Also, who the crap is Sweeping Sir James?

Part 9: Stealing from the blacksmith gives Count Fivefingers the confidence he needs to go kill some more eskimos. Also, the local gnome seems to have lost his mind. Brain those nachos!

Part 10 finds the Count picking fights with a drunk griffin made of metal.

Part 11: We fight an air elemental with angry eyes! Uh, eventually. More accurately, we see an air elemental and run away, then watch a cat do a striptease…again…

Part 12: After defeating the Air Elemental, we try to reach Raseir without a caravan. The journey is detailed Ken Burns-style.

Part 12a: The long version of our trek to Raseir. It’s mostly just random encounters and random banter.

Part 12b: Just the Ken Burns documentary part. My dearest Shema…

King’s Quest VI, where obsessive stalking conquers all!

Part 10: We finally get Princess Cassima’s side of the relationship, which is confusing and inconclusive. So, accurate to real life then.

Part 11: We show off the first part of the “short path,” which mostly consists of trying to avoid John Wayne the dog.

Part 12: The short path ends with a genie killing himself, a wedding party consisting of one clown and two dogs, and a Bryan Adams ripoff. Surely we can do better than that. Stay tuned!

Part 13: Alexander gets some swamp booze from an angry stick and then drinks from a bottle marked “Drink Me.” Instead of shrinking, though, he just dies. Life lessons are learned.

Part 14: After the druids see rain put a fire out, they are somehow convinced that Alexander is a powerful wizard. Then he enters a Styx album cover and plays the xylophone.

Part 15:Alexander makes the Lord of the Dead cry by showing him his biopic. Worse yet, it was directed by Uwe Boll.

The answer is love! It’s always love!

Part 16: Alexander infiltrates the castle, avoids the guard dogs, and finds evidence that the evil vizier is, in fact, evil…wait, haven’t we done this before?

Part 17: The evil vizier is defeated again, and Alexander and Cassima are finally married…only this time, Jollo remembered to mail out the invitations, and more than two dogs showed up. The game ends with the same 90’s power ballad though.
