Sierra Saturday: Let's Play Space Quest II (Apple IIGS) - Episode 4 - Fall guy
7It's Sierra Saturday! Let's play Space Quest: Chapter II: Vohaul's Revenge! Roger has been abducted and dropped on the planet Labion, where he is fighting for his life, in hopes to survive to save the galaxy once again from the evil designs of the diabolical Sludge Vohaul.
In this episode:
After fording a dangerous chasm, Roger finds himself ensnared by a large oafish beast of a hunter, who's planning on making him tonight's meal. Though quick(ish) thinking, Roger knocks out his captor, escapes, and then makes his way back to the chasm, newly acquired rope in hand, only to make it nearly into the clutches of yet another hostile example of Labion's fauna.

Space Quest: Chapter II: Vohaul's Revenge, is the second installment in the long-running and beloved sci-fi parody series by Sierra On-Line veteran dream-team Mark Crowe and Scott Murphy - also known as the "Two Guys from Andromeda". Released in 1987, just a year after the first game in the series, it returns the player into the shoes of the dubiously heroic protagonist of the series, Roger Wilco, as he is kidnapped by Sludge Vohaul, creator of the Star Generator, and forced to crash land on the surface of the hostile alien planet Labion, where he must fight for his life against hostile flora and fauna, and find his way back off the planet, in order to foil Vohaul's plan to infest Xenon with an army of genetically engineered life insurance salesmen.
Space Quest II was, similar to its predecessor, well received by the gaming public, and lauded for its advancements in animation, puzzles, and a more intuitive text parser. It sets up one of the main long-running villains of the Space Quest series, Sludge Vohaul, and also was listed as one of Sierra's Top 5 bestselling games, selling more than 1.2 million copies in 9 years of retail sale.
The NPCs are playing the Apple IIGS EGA version of Space Quest using the GSPlus emulator.
